Possible reopening of Green

To all members,

You will all have seen or heard the latest Govt announcements relaxing the rules on outdoor sporting facilities, including bowling greens, which may allow them to open on a limited basis. However, until we receive clear and detailed guidance from Bowls England, who are currently in discussions with the relevant Govt department (see below for detailed statement) the Club must remain closed, so please do not come to the Club, unless you have been asked to do so for essential maintenance. The actual decision to reopen and if so, when, will be made at Club level, taking into account the advice from BE and the views of members. None of this can happen immediately: it will take a while to get the green ready for play and it’s likely that there will be strict conditions for the Club to follow, which will also take time to put in place. Please let us know what you think about re-opening: do you think it is too soon? Are you worried about coming to the Club and why? If we know your concerns, we may be able to do something about them. You can call or e-mail me or leave a comment on the Facebook page, as this message will also appear there.

You can view the full BE Guidance document on our website
