MidGlos IBCHello everyone, What a week-end! I’m absolutely “tired”, particularly since we’ve just returned from a drinks and nibbles get together with our new neighbours! No lunch, 21 ends and alcoholic drinks ( with not too many nibbles!!!) – not a good recipe!!! However, I’ll keep going and hope it all gels!🤞 Both the Yetton v […]
Hello again, At least we’ve seen the reappearance of the sun today (Sunday) after a rather gloomy week. More excellent news for our younger members! Three of our U25s have been selected to play in the Men’s U25 International Trial Team – Louie Hodges, Dylan Williamson and Finlay Williamson to be played on Sunday, 1st […]
Hello everyone, What a very successful week-end for MidGlos! The Denny and the Yetton were being played on Saturday morning against Malvern – two rinks at home and two rinks away for both. It was an arduous journey for MidGlos and Malvern players playing away because of the tragedy on M5 where a young man […]
Hope you all remembered to turn your clocks back an hour last night. Not sure the weather has realised it’s autumn/winter now. It’s glorious today. Long may it last. On Wednesday afternoon, MidGlos was playing GCIBA. Officially, we lost by one but apparently the score wasn’t quite so close. Never mind, that’s only one match. […]
The sad news first, I’m afraid. A former MidGlos member, Jim Lee who was in a care home has died. Funeral arrangements to follow when we have details. I didn’t know him but I’m told that he was a lovely chap who was very quiet but also very friendly. He joined the club at the same time […]
What a busy week-end! On Friday evening, the first round of the U18s open singles took place at MidGlos against Carterton. Two of the three boys will continue to the next round but, sadly one lost on the last end of the tiebreak having fought a very good match. On Saturday morning the preliminary round of […]
Hello again, We’re back after a great week away. Our team didn’t quite make it – although we lost in the quarters by one shot, we really shouldn’t have done. However, to reach the quarters out of 100 teams is not too shabby. During one of our games we managed a hot shot and were presented […]
Hello everyone, I hope you all survived the rain, hail, thunder and lightning which began on Friday. The journey to the club on Friday evening which normally takes 25/30 minutes took us an hour and a quarter! The Whist group decided to stay at home. Our choir leaders postponed both of our outdoor performances this […]
Hello for the last time this summer season! Just ONE WEEK to go! How exciting! I do like summer (if we have one) but I no longer dread winter because it now means – more bowling. Wonderful! A gentle reminder for our members returning from playing outdoors for the last few months. GRIPPO AND THE LIKE is […]
Hello again, And it’s still sunny! We wish all of our members who are playing in the finals in Leamington the best of luck. I’ve been told that Dylan and Fin Williamson are playing on Wednesday morning and that it is being streamed from 9.15 on the Bowls England website. Go for it, lads. The date for the […]
