News and Events – Hemingford Bowls Club

Thanks are extended to members who answered the urgent call for a working party to clear the green of debris left after the removal of the hedge. As you can see, this was no easy task but the team worked together and did a wonderful job. THANK YOU!

Wow! What a truly magnificent morning we enjoyed hosting our first MacMillan Coffee Morning. Visitors flocked in and loved the atmosphere and what we had on offer. The success was down to the generosity of those who donated items, cakes and money plus the hard work of the coffee morning team – Mandy, Sue, John, David, Stuart, Jan and not forgetting Chrissie and Diana.

MADAM CHAIRS CHALLENGE

As members were missing their Wednesday afternoon Over 60’s League, our Chair arranged 3 matches of 3-wood triples. Players changed positions after every 6 ends: lead -2-skip; skip-lead-2; 2-skip-lead. Most members managed this although some were confused! Dress code was ‘dress down’ and some bright shirts were seen on the green. Thanks to John Mitchley the bar opened early for members to head to after the games.

The winners were ‘The Four Candles’ John & Chrissie Wilson, Steve Williams (1 match) and Tony Whitehill (2 matches).
