On Sunday, 24th July, we enjoyed our annual match with the parent club, Merrow Village Club. The weather was not as hot as in the past week, but it was still a pleasant day.

Five teams from each side took part, with a lot of good humour and banter. As usual, the Village Club fielded a good set of players, winning some of the matches; which was very humbling for the bowlers. With any luck, we will be able to convert some of them into members of the bowls section!

Following the match, the Village Club laid on a splendid barbecue and following on from that, a raffle was held with numerous prizes, with the amazing total of £450 being raised for the Children’s Ward of the Royal Surrey County Hospital. A big “thank you” to all concerned.

On Sunday 31st, we have another match, this time between teams for the President and Chairman of the club. If you are unable to play, why not come along and support your favourites.
