Friendlies 2026
​
Friendly matches against local clubs are played throughout the summer season, at home and away.
​
-
Entry is open to all club members, regardless of ability - the objective is to take part in a friendly game.
-
The format of the match may be fours or triples - it all depends on the numbers wishing to take part. And we've been known to lend or borrow players to/from the opposition to balance the teams.
-
Our home matches start with a Spider game ...
-
Afternoon matches culminate in afternoon tea (naturally) - there may well be greater competition between clubs in the quality of the teas than there is in the quality of the bowls!
-
There will be a raffle.
The fixtures for 2026 are shown below:
​
​
Sign-up sheets for each match will be posted in the Clubhouse a few weeks prior to the fixture.

Organiser: Carol Pope

The Spider Game
​
Just a bit of fun to break the ice - open to all who wish to have a go:
​
-
The 'spider' is placed in the centre of the green.
-
Upon the appointed signal, each player bowls one wood from the edge of the green (one foot in the ditch) - all the bowls are in play at the same time.
-
The bowl closest to the spider once all the bowls have come to rest is declared the winner.
​
Entries are £1 and there is a prize.
