The new electric fence is now fully installed. Well done to Roger Gatland for planning and leading the installation with valuable assistance from PJ Brennan and Marion Gatland. We hope that this new feature will keep our green free from fox damage for the foreseeable future.

Our next social event is the Christmas Coffee Morning. Donations would be greatly appreciated for the Bring & Buy Table and the Christmas Draw. These can be left in the box on the sideboard in the Clubhouse or bring on the day.

59 members and guests enjoyed a tasty 3 course meal by La Casa Catering at Donyngs IBC. Well done to Paul Lindley for the organisation of the evening ably assisted by Brian Sabey, Lyn Davison & John Davison.

Don’t forget it’s the club dinner tomorrow evening!

Steve Whiting, Marion & Roger Gatland and Mary Peckham represented Reigate & Banstead in the short mat bowls at the GLL Better Games held at the Copper Box, Olympic Park today and won this element of the multi-sport event helping Reigate & Banstead to 3rd place overall. Well done indeed. Here they are with former javelin World Champion and Olympic medallist Fatima Whitbread.

Ames Brisley has just received the final table for the North Downs League. Mid-table respectability for RBC! The non-result was a rained off match against Horley. Well done to all those who put their names down and played meaning we fulfilled all our other fixtures which was a major improvement on 2016.

Come along to the Club next Tuesday 24th October from 9.30 onwards to help the Green Team  spread lawn sand on the green. There is 3 tonnes of it so some additional people would help spread the load.
