A very bright and almost summer’s-like day on Saturday saw the start of this year’s outdoor lawn bowls season in Somerset and around many parts of the UK.
Bloomfield Bowling Club in Bath started with its Presidents’ Day which heralds the beginning of the clubs outdoor season.
The President, Peter Martin, welcomed new and existing members to Bloomfield, which is situated on the Wellsway.
On a cool, bright day there was an internal two-wood competition with the eventual winner being Tom Winsborough.
Because of this year’s severe winter, it was a race against the elements to get the green and the surrounding areas ready for the day; but determination and very hard work by some of the members proved a sucess for the opening.
Should you be interested in taking up the sport, the first year of membership is free. Please contact the Club Secretary on: 07719 978438, or you can come up any Saturday afternoon at 2 p.m. or Monday evening at 6 p.m. to view the game and meet the members.
