Triples Competition 2026 The weather was fine, the green looked in perfect condition, and a gentle breeze promised for a good bowling day. Ten teams played four games of an hour each over the course of the day, with the top two progressing to the final later in the afternoon.

What a fantastic week it's been. Whilst last week's matches were dominated by torrential downpoors and soggy greens, this week we have been bathed in warm to very hot sunshine for days on end, as the UK recorded record temperatures. It makes the game of bowls a pleasure to play, although some have their limits in the heat, as shown when this week's ladies' friendly match was cancelled due to the high temperature. Triples Competition this weekend We are all set for our club tr

As our internal competitions get going, singles bowlers will need someone to mark their matches. This week's coaching special edition is on marking.

Open day fun in the sun Alex and Kerry, who cycled from Haywood to join us It was a beautiful warm and sunny day for our open day last weekend. Many of our members came along and helped to make the day a really successful one. With the bunting fluttering, a tableful of cakes looking inviting and the BBQ ready to fire up, we waited anxiously to see if all the advertising and promotion had worked and we would get some visitors! By opening time, the green was already looking bus

Special Edition - All about the green This week's Cornish tour team, enjoying the green As you probably know, the majority of our annual subscription is spent on the green, with greenkeeping contractors regularly attending to maintain it. However, much work continues daily all year round by club members to keep our green looking as good as it does. Paul Aldus oversees the green work, as well as putting in many hours himself. He creates a report for each committee meeting, giv

President's Day The weather It was an interesting start to the afternoon, with glorious sunshine to welcome members back for the new season, followed almost immediately with a downpour of hail that turned the green white for a few minutes. It wasn't long before the hail disappeared and an afternoon of sun and minor showers with fresh winds then prevailed. A good turnout saw 40 members line up for the annual photo followed by a spider, won by Doreen Dickinson. The match Presid

It was a wonderful social atmosphere as members and guests arrived for our annual presentation evening at Worlebury Golf Club. The drinks were flowing, and Wendy's efforts at cleaning all the cups paid dividends as they shone proudly on the table. There were oohs and aahs as the raffle table started to fill. Ann Amos did a sterling job keeping up with the demand for raffle tickets, before MC John Wright called for everyone to take their seats for dinner. Here are a few of our
