What's On Now

Crib Night Cards2

Wednesdays, 7:00pm (Bar Open)

Whether you are an experienced Crib player or a beginner, why not come along to our Wednesday Crib Night at the clubhouse. If you have your own Crib board and cards, then please feel free to bring them along, but don't worry if you haven't, we do have spares.

Crib nights are a great social get-together and we even open the bar. The cost is just £1.00 per person and includes tea / coffee and biscuits half-way through the evening.

Carpet Bowls

Bowling Man

Mondays, 2:00pm - 5:00pm

Wednesdays, 2:00pm - 5:00pm

Fridays, 7:00pm - 10:00pm (Bar Open)

Carpet Bowls is back at the clubhouse. It doesn't matter if you haven't played before, the obstacle in the middle of the short mat makes for some hilarious bowling techniques. This is a fun way to while away the winter months until the new season starts and is a great social get together.

The cost is just £1.00 per person per session and includes tea / coffee and biscuits during the half-way break.
