Message from your new Captain
Thanks to everyone who supported my nomination and to all who did
not oppose it. I would like to thank last year’s Captain, John, who
stepped in at the last minute due to my changing domicile
arrangements.
I hope I can follow him in his successful year.
Requests are pouring in for friendlies and I may have some
timetabling difficulties but I know we will meet our commitments.
After all it helps keep the club alive and healthy.
I wish you all a Happy Christmas and a prosperous 2017. I will keep
you posted with regards to team pools, captains, leagues friendlies
and any other matters pertaining to bowling play.
