Devizes Bowls Club

Club Captains Ellen & Ian presented £950 to Debbie Filler (Friends of Canons House) and £950 to Terry and Juliet Bazeley (Devizes PHAB) at a very well attended coffee morning where the atmosphere had a real buzz about it.

Debbie and Terry gave a brief insight into what they try to achieve in their respective roles and what is involved in the general running of these much needed facilities. Like a lot of others they depend on volunteers and fundraising. We hope the money raised will help in some small way and allow them to give their members/residents some much deserved extras which most of us take for granted.

Thanks must go again to the generosity of members, and in particular to two generous donations received from Rob Butler (on behalf of Fiat Lux Lodge) and Darren Woodcock (on behalf of the Social Group).

Thank you to everyone who braved the rain and came along to support my President’s Day. The weather prevented any bowling, but a back-up plan had already been put in place in the form of a ‘Name that Tune’ quiz.  This was professionally presented by one of our new members, Wayne Dicker, and had the room buzzing as well as singing. 

The meal afterwards was ham salad followed by a delicious dessert of strawberry meringues and cream.  Thanks must go to Sue Reeves and her team of helpers for all the hard work which went into preparing this. The Bar was busy but expertly manned by Sheila, Terry and Ricky.  What more could I have ask for on a wet and windy President’s Day?

This marks the end of another successful outdoor season.  Winter well and enjoy your indoor/short mat bowling.

Congratulations to the B team in the Mid Wilts Triples League.  

Following their win on Thursday they have ended the season at the top of the Premier Division. This is a well deserved and impressive achievement. Every member who has played for the team should feel really proud!  

A ‘feather in the cap’ for the team leaders, Terry Miles and Colin Shewring, who we hear are ‘over the moon’!

Well done everybody. 

Ian & Ellen

Club Captains 

Many congratulations to our County Finals winners:

Chris Pretty (Unbadged Two Wood) and Bev Lilley, Sheila Garlick and Rose Merritt (Benevolent Triples)

This is the culmination of all the effort put in to get through the earlier rounds and we all know what a marathon that can be! You should all be deservedly proud of your achievements and Devizes Bowls Club is very proud of you

Well done ladies.

Ian & Ellen, Club Captains 

Despite some dreary weather, particularly on Saturday, the bowls over the weekend was anything but! We witnessed incredibly close and competitive games that truly captivated the spectators. Congratulations to all the winners and runners-up! Thank you for providing such a fantastic display of bowls from start to finish.

Here’s the full list of results:

I would also like to extend a huge thank you to the many people who supported in making the weekend a success: the ladies in the kitchen for providing refreshments, the bar staff for keeping us watered, the members for setting up all the kit, and the markers for generously giving their time.

This year we will be holding a presentation evening on October 11th to officially hand the trophies over to the winners and runners-up. Please keep an eye out for further details and sign-up sheets at the club.

Best regards,

Matt Thompson
