    Presidents day report.

    Presidents; Day 2025
    St Michaels on Wyre Bowling Club
    President Mr John Morris

    Saturday 21st June 2025 has been crowned as the hottest day of the year so far, and even a few spots of rain could not dampen the spirits at St Michaels. Presidents Da was an excellent day. The bowling green and its grounds looked lovely.

    Congratulations to all of the players, the bowling was exceptional. So many very close games, however there had to be a winner and Steve Edwards representing Frenchwood, beat Michael Knowles representing Woodplumpton A, in the final with a score of 21 9.
    Steve had worked his way through the competition, knocking out Gary Daw - Owd Nells TT, in the semi-final with a score of 21-15 and Michael winning against Dave Kay Parkfield A, with score of 21-16.
    The day was a resounding success and we do thank the host club St Michaels for all of their hard work. The markers, the measurers and of course the army of helpers who kept everyone fed and watered.
    It was a fabulous day.
    Thank you all.

    Registration Night.
    Registration Night Tues 11th March Broughton BC (7pm)
    Please could team captains provide a list of players to remove from their list of registered players as well as any additional new players you wish to add either at the March registration night or via email. I think a lot of teams are not up to date with non-players/deceased members still listed to tidy things up.
