Bowling begins!
The weather forecast for the week ahead is showing signs of the spring weather to come. No 1 Green is now open for “gentle use”. Please swish the green before use to remove the dew and worm-casts. Please do not play in wet conditions or just after heavy rain. We do not want the playing surface to become compacted and muddy.
No.2 green has emerged from the winter in a rather poor condition and therefore its opening is delayed until sometime in April. Extra fertilisers are being applied by the Greens Team to help its recovery from its water-logged damage problems.
Round Robins will commence most Tuesdays and Saturdays starting on 2 April. Check on our website for dates. Please register by 1.15pm for a 1.30pm start.
