Bradwell ladies on the move!!!!!

Sunday Sept 4th     PRESIDENT vs CAPTAIN. The weather held fine, we had a

great turnout and evryone had an enjoyable afternoon. The score  was second to the fun but the captain's team did run out winners 70-50

WE WILL BE ordering shirts/jackets very soon, Probably ready for next season but who knows? Orders to Cap'n Dave please. We still have a few in stock. worth asking. UNFORTUNATELY in the current financial climate we will have to ask for payment with order.

FIRST TROPHY OFF THE SEASON...the Tom Rush, our annual Aussie Pairs,

was played out between eleven pairs in mainly brilliant sunshine.  With two couples tied on 15 points (Chris & Sandra, John B & Wendy)  it went to shot difference. The winners and 2022 champions, John & Wendy by just a single shot. Thanks to everyone that took part  and those that just came and watched.

FINAL TOTAL FROM PRESIDENT'S DAY...and donated to the Alzheimers Society, was £150. Thanks to all that participated

ON FRIDAY 8h July we entertained Old Bradwell Cricket Club and had a brilliant evening, thoroughly enjoyed by both clubs. So much so that a rematch is pencilled in for September. Big thanks to all that took part and helped to make the event a success

ANOTHER GREAT President's Day! See photo's onred, white & blue page.

FINES are coming back!

Fines are a traditional, good natured  way for clubs to put a few pennies in the coffers. We have lapsed over the Covid period but will start by reintroducing a £1 fine for 'wrong bias' from Sun June 12th. This is a fun element and not to be taken seriously - but watch out, your team members will split on you!!

INTERNAL COMPS

Once you have arranged a game, please enter date and time you plan to

play in the book inside the main door, and check that there is an available rink.

FABULOUS OPEN DAY!

Loads of visitors and a beautiful day. Perfect for introducing young and the more mature to the social side of bowls.

FLOWERS IN THE GARDEN GROW...many thanks to Kath, who has been busy planting outside the clubhouse. It's going to look great. Can't beat a good show and a chance to impress our visitors.

Thanks also to Robbie and his kneepads for weeding and watering along the tennis fencing to keep Colin's shrubs going.

The committee have decided that for the 2022 season, we will not revert to formal catering after the games but will continue as this past season, with a break halfway through for tea/coffee/biscuits etc., and the bar will be open throughout. Members and visitors are welcome to stay and socialise post match.

It should be noted that most clubs are following this more informal trend.

A big thank you in advance to Les and Jane, who have volunteered once again to organise the mid match refreshments.
