NEWTON Abbot Bowling Club will be holding an Open Day on Saturday, April 26 from 10am.

It is a chance for people of all ages to try their hand at the game of bowls- for newcomers to the game, all that is required is that you wear flat shoes/trainers.

All equipment i.e. bowls etc will be available on the day with members on hand to give guidance.

Indeed, if there are any former bowlers who have moved to this area or for one reason or the other, haven't played for a while and would like to get back into the sport, then this is the ideal opportunity to do so.

If you require further information then check out the club’s website: www.newtonabbotbowlingclub.co.uk or contact secretary Paul Hawkins on 07976515418.

Newton are due to welcome touring teams from Newquay Trenance on Friday, April 25 followed on Monday 28 by Burnham on Sea. Here’s hoping the weather for the upcoming events is better than it is at the time of writing!
