Upcoming Friendly Matches Announced
Posted by Wayne Simmonds on 10 May 2021
We are delighted to announce that we have secured a number of exciting home and away matches in the coming weeks. Following the published step one and two guidance, our county association took the difficult decision to put a stop to all four rink and three rink league fixtures until July. This meant that as a club we only had one guaranteed match per week and only one home match in two weeks. This simply was not enough to keep our club going, as we massively rely on income taken at home matches via our bar facilities.
With the potential for this to leave us with very little choice other than to close, our management committee made the decision to reach out to other clubs in a similar position and arrange 'friendly' matches, under the sanctions of Bowls England's 'Return to play' guidance.
From this, we have now secured dates for the remaining matches to take us up to the start of July when we hope normal scheduling will continue. We would like to say a massive thank you to the clubs we have arranged matches with, for their support.
