Mid-Season Update – Plenty to Smile About!
We're now just over halfway through the outdoor season, and it's been an encouraging few months for the club.
Our Friendly fixtures have produced some excellent results, with 11 wins from our 29 matches so far – a great effort by everyone who has represented the club. In league action, we're currently sitting third in the Mid Sussex League and continuing to hold our own in the Border League, so there's still plenty to play for during the second half of the season. Several of our members are also doing well in external competitions.
We're hoping to continue our good form – and perhaps enjoy a change of fortune when we play Rottingdean in our next Friendly match this weekend.
Player Availability
With the holiday season now in full swing, many of our regular players are understandably away. If you're available to play, please make sure you update your availability on the club website for both Friendly and League fixtures. Your support is invaluable in helping selectors field full teams throughout the busy summer period.
Social Event – Thursday 21st August
Don't forget our Bingo Evening on Friday 21st August. Before the eyes down begins, there is a choice of fish and chips or sausage and chips. If you'd like to come along, please add your name to the noticeboard as soon as possible.
Thank you to everyone for your continued support and commitment. Here's to an enjoyable and successful second half of the season – both on and off the green!
Commonwealth Games
A reminder that the Commonwealth Games are now on in Scotland and include both regular bowls and Para bowls. Bowls is one of the original six sports on the Commonwealth Games programme, meaning its has been played at every games since 1930 (with the exception of 1966 in Kingston, Jamaica where no facilities were available).
