It’s finally installed and ready to play on. Our long awaited replacement carpet promises to guide your bowls inerringly towards the jack, or maybe not – it’s up to you. We bid a not too regretful farewell to our worn, faded and quirky old carpet and look forward to bowling on a fresh looking surface that runs true. We’ve yet to receive images of the new carpet in use but our newsletter has been chronicling its installation over the last few weeks.

Rain Delay
Sometimes you just have to accept that bowling isn’t going to happen! The advantage of a fast-draining synthetic green, however, is that you probably won’t have to wait long before bowling is possible. This snap was taken after a deluge late on Friday afternoon and the green was perfectly usable for a pennant match the following day.

APBC achieves a clean sweep! Regrettably that’s not a recent success at pennant we’re reporting but it is something worth noting. It’s what the grounds crew achieves on a regular basis in their contest against the autumn leaves. To explore the many ways that members contribute to the smooth running of our club take a look at the Volunteer Opportunities page where some of the areas of voluntary effort are outlined.
