A new mixed Sunday Jackpot Pairs competition is being tried out starting on Sunday 9th June at 2 pm. There will be an entry fee but a chance for everyone (winners and losers) to win the jackpot each week. The matches will mainly be in the form of three bowl pairs. When the matches are complete a draw will be made for a number between 1 and 20, and if the shots difference in any match is the same as the number drawn, the jackpot (initially £60) will be shared among the players in that match. Everyone has a chance to win! If no score matches the number drawn, the entry fees go toward increasing the jackpot in the following week. Entries can be made in advance on the Social Events notice board, or just come down on Sunday before 1.45 pm.
Season 2019 opened officially on 13th April on a sunny if somewhat chilly
day.
President Chris Lebessis introduced the guests and then welcomed 14 new members
to the club most of whom
were present on the day. Anne Blain threw the
first jack and then a five rink competition between President's and
Vice-President's teams took place, which the former won (without, it has to be
said, much help from the President's rink!)

| 4th January 2006 At last , an update! A photo showing
the clubhouse in the 1960's before the lounge extension was added. Other
hot news from the carpet bowls section is the restoration of the very
popular
Chip Convenor post which has resulted in food arriving late on Friday
evenings. It is just as well that the wives of certain members do not browse
this website and see how their best efforts at keeping their men in trim
condition are being badly undermined! |
