During the winter months, unable to play boules, Westfield Petanque Club get together once a month to play skittles, at Mardons Social Club.

Particularly popular are the Christmas skittles, with everyone suitably dressed (under threat of paying a forfeit, if not), and the buffet table groaning with Christmas fare. The rivalry is every bit as fierce, and this time the ladies team were triumphant.

We are now looking forward to the 2023 boules season, which starts on April 25th at Norton Hill Recreation Ground at 6pm.

Everyone is welcome to join us, as you can see, we are a very mixed bunch, with ages ranging from 4 months to 92 years, so come along and join in the fun.
