Spring is such a beautiful time.
Everything starts to grow and there’s a fresh new feel to life, which is why it’s also a good time to look back over the past year and see just how far you’ve come. We’ll certainly be doing that at our AGM later this month and what a journey we’ve made in the past twelve months. Not only have we made some huge improvements to our club house, the grounds and facilities in general but we’ve increased our membership, have introduced darts, snooker and a whiskey tasting club and still have more ideas brewing! Thank you to the members of our 2022/2023 committee and we look forward to an even more successful 2023/2024 year!
Over the past weekend all three of our league teams played at home; what a busy afternoon of bowls. The women’s team had a lovely game against Lynwood and picked up two points. The men’s second team played against Howick and the thirds played against Maritzburg. They each picked up 2.5 and 5.5 points respectively and all players had a wonderful afternoon on the greens.
On Tuesday morning, four of our members were awarded their Marker’s Badge & Certificate for the successful completion of the most recently run course. Congratulations to Kevin Palmer, Wendy Smith, Pippa Griffin and Sharon Trower for this achievement and for making the first step in the journey to becoming an umpire.
That’s all for this week… see you on the greens!
