Off-the-Wall

Well, Kevin is not exactly “Off-the-Wall” but more “On-the-Wall” as he (rather unconventionally) awaits his turn to bowl by sitting on the edge.

Kevin plays his way, but is he actually taking a rest or preparing for a run-up to his delivery?

Brian Pulls It Off

Fortified with a good ol’ cup of tea – and a cream cake – Brian decides to have a go at ripping apart the fence in front of the Clubhouse. What was in that teapot as David RJ is on his way in for some of the same?

Do They Really Know What They’re Doing?

Ian uses the bowling green roller on the path! Uh?
Nigel uses the wheelbarrow without putting the wheel on the ground! Uh?
Ian “swishes” the green to clear wormcasts! Uh?
Bobby, who does know what he’s doing

Although the initial evidence might lead you to believe that our boys haven’t quite got the hang of proper green maintenance, Click Here for some more photos that show clearly that they really do know what they’re doing!

Great to See Our Friends Back

Margaret and Roger D quietly arrived at the green on Thursday to watch and support the players in the Finals of the Alpha Trophy and the Hornby Cup. Both are past Presidents’ and also first-class players, having had many wins for the team year-on-year. They have done a great deal for the Club and it was good to see them both here last week.

Rain versus Bowlers

John & Carol B (left) our ‘B’ Team reps with Linda and Steve (supporters from the club) at Mochdre

Clwydian League qualifying events were held around North Wales yesterday but rain turned all the events into a bigger challenge than expected.

Halfway through the day at Mochdre, time was called on the event as puddles had formed all over the green. Remaining games to be played today.

At Old Colwyn, the players continued on through the torrential downpours testing everyone’s resolve and their waterproof clothing. Click Here for a couple more photos. Our ‘C’ Team reps, John P and Keith, played at Meliden and were equally soaked through. Well done everyone.
