CLUB FINALS & PRESENTATION DINNER
Well done to all the finalists for some excellent bowls on Finals Weekend. Many thanks go to the Competition Secretaries – Lyn Davison and Sam Alan for all the prior organisation and on the day; to the umpires and markers; to the Green Team for keeping the green in such good condition and for sweeping both mornings; and to the many spectators who helped create a super atmosphere during the matches.
The trophies will be presented at the Club Dinner. Sign up with your menu choices at the Clubhouse. Tickets are priced at £30. Please pay Ann Pannell or Ros Penton if you would like a ticket.
NORTH DOWNS LEAGUE – FINAL TABLE & PRESENTATION GAME
Well done RBC for finishing 3rd in the NDL this year. Our best position in recent years and maybe ever.
Our team for the presentation game at Bletchingley on 13th Sept has been selected on the basis of most NDL matches played this season and is Marion Gatland, Roger Gatland & David Rigg. Supporters are welcome to attend the game which starts at 2 pm.
CLUB FINALS – 7th/8th SEPTEMBER
Congratulations to all who have reached a final and many thanks to all the other members who have entered club competitions this year and given us some entertaining matches.
Several members are in multiple finals and it takes a few days to establish the timetable for the finals weekend. Unless we are notified otherwise it is assumed that finalists are available for all sessions on both days. The timetable will be posted in the Clubhouse, on the Club Website and on Facebook as soon as possible.
Sam has kindly offered to provide light lunches on both days (details to follow) and the kitchen and bar will be open for drinks during the day.
Any questions to Sam Cates or Lyn Davison please.
