Nat'l/C'ty/P&D/G&F Comps
Club members are eligible to enter any or all of the various competitions run by the Portsmouth & District Associations (Ladies' and Men's) and/or Gosport & Fareham (G&F) League, and/or the County (Bowls Hampshire) and/or the National (Bowls England)* competitions. Additionally, many clubs (local and not so local) hold 'Open' competitions.
Such competitions typically comprise separate singles, pairs, triples and 'rinks' (fours) events [some multi-player competitions not being held in 2021], and run throughout the season.
Entry details and forms are typically to be found on our clubhouse notice-boards or from the appropriate Secretary/ies on our Committee. Entries are valid only with fee payment, to be made in our usual way.
