Women's President Greeting
Marian Bailey, Ladies President 2026
Meon Valley Bowling Club
Firstly, I wish to thank the Hampshire Executive for putting their trust in me to
fulfil this post as your Ladies President for 2026. I also would like to take the
opportunity to thank my own club, Meon Valley BC, in Bishops Waltham, for
nominating me for this post
On my retirement from full-time work I joined MVBC as a social bowler but soon
realised that the competitive mindset was indeed still there. At Club level I
played in the S&DWBA leagues with success and in 2021 became Club
President and in 2024 became S&DWBA President
I am very much looking forward to the Summer ahead and witnessing some
exciting bowling and hope to see many of you at Leamington
After a lot of thought I have decided that any funds that is raised will go to
our Hampshire young bowlers. They are the grassroots and the future of bowls
I am extremely honoured to now be 2026 Bowls Hampshire Ladies' President
and to this post I will bring encouragement, support and hopefully some light
hearted moments. My mantra will be:
RELAX, ENJOY and the BOWLS WILL ROLL.
Marian Bailey
