We are just about to commence the new bowling season with the green opening for play about now. Our members are looking forward as always to getting out there on the green again to enjoy the great sport of bowls played against one of the best backdrops any club can have – the sea and the Needles. Can get windy but that’s a challenge! Last season’s intake of new members are already proficient bowlers and hopefully will join in on competitive play this year.
During the winter months work continued on the green to keep its surface in great condition – recognised throughout the area to be the best around. Our new computer controlled irrigation system installed last year worked brilliantly throughout the season keeping the green in beautiful condition – essential for good bowling. Plans were passed recently by the NFDC to allow us, in due course, to proceed with extending our clubhouse so as to provide our growing membership with even better facilities.
As in previous years the Club is holding an Open Morning on Wednesday 29th April from 10.30am – 12.00pm so that ‘new to the sport’ men and women can learn something about the game and the Club. Experienced players are also invited to contact and visit the Club to enquire about membership. Many of the Club’s members come from the Everton and Hordle area as well as Milford on Sea. Bowling is enjoyed by men and women of all ages and if you are interested in learning more about the Club then please contact the Honorary Secretary, Mr Howard Farmer on 07725 715781 or email him at howard02@sky.com.
