Green Bowling
Bowling is a
sedate and gentle exercise recommended by many GP's as a sport for
those in their senior years.
Like many games it looks easy when watching those with years of practice and skill. However, it can be a bit like driving a car at first, so many things to think of at the same time.
Don't let that put you off, we are a very friendly group and we mix up so that everyone plays with different people each week. We have some laughter and fun as well as concentrating on our bowling.
Tuition can be arranged for
newcomers by telephoning the Group Leader in advance.
We meet at 10-00 am on a Thursday at Torkington Park, Hazel Grove and a small charge of £1.00 is made to cover the use of the green. We play until mid-day with a break for refreshment about half way through (which you bring yourself). Bowling takes place throughout the year, weather permitting, but please note that if there is frost we are unable to bowl. There are bowls available at the green if you don’t own your own.
We hold an annual bowling competition day, open to all
members, with a trophy awarded to the
winner and other prizes.
Does this interest you? If so, U3A members would be welcome any Thursday morning.
