Give bowls a try

HAVE you ever thought about trying your hand at lawn bowls?

The game was included in the Commonwealth Games last year and matches shown on the main TV sports channels, which helped to raise its profile.

Yate & District Bowling Club is a small, friendly club tucked away in Sunnyside sports field at the end of Moorland Road - and we’re waiting to give you a warm welcome at our open day, on Sunday May 7 from 10am to 4pm.

Tea, coffee and light refreshments will be available.

Also, help us to celebrate the coronation of our new King while you’re here.

So many people don’t even know we exist, so come along and give it a go!

No experience is necessary - just wear flat shoes.

We’ll have coaches on hand to show you the basics, and bowls will be provided.

We meet throughout the summer season, until the end of September, for friendly matches, leagues, internal and national competitions.

People of all ages and abilities are welcome.

For more information contact Mary on 07885 543823 or Ruth on 07814 156754.

The entrance to our car park is via Moorland Road, off Station Road.
