Message from Greens Secretary
The gardens surrounding the greens are looking well but Lesley, who is our lone flower bed and bushes gardener, is finding it extremely difficult to keep on top of. If there is anyone in our community who can give a few hours on a Monday morning to help Lesley, I’m sure it would be much appreciated, by both Lesley and your committee.
All team results will be on here under Events(Fixtures)
League tables are under the More banner, Final tables for 2025 are on now.
I have added some photographs from the latest club competitions to the Gallery and a couple of the layout of the room for the coffee morning. Just to show the work that goes in for the event to go ahead. (under the More Banner)

Bonus Ball Lottery
Sue Woodeson (You can contact her on 01482 844402
Sue runs a lottery, based on the “Bonus Ball” in the National Lottery. This lottery currently generates some £2K per annum for club funds. It is little more than a bit of fun, but helps the finances for the running of the club.
Basically, you have 2 choices; you either pay:-
50p per week for your chosen Wednesday number(s) & stand to win £12.50, or £1 per week for your chosen Saturday number(s) & stand to win £25.00. ( Payable a minimum 3 months at a time)
(One caveat; if you own a number before the 30th September each year, and that number comes up in the Christmas week’s draw, your winning doubles!!)
Currently, approximately 50 of our members participate, but there are vacancies, so if you are interested please talk to Sue.
There are numbers available for both Wednesday and Saturdays. Contact Sue for details

Ground Maintenance. Every Monday Morning a small group of Members undertake the maintenance of the Grounds. Help is desperately needed. Can you help to keep the Greens open? Just come along and you will be offered a job to do. Our few helpers are progressing with the trimming of the greens, mowing the outer grasses and the tending of the flower beds. As always we could do with a little more help if there is anyone available for a couple of hours on a Monday morning. Thank you in advance, every little helps.
