Disability Bowls England Game

The Disability Bowls England game was a great success today and everyone had a very enjoyable afternoon. The atmosphere was very upbeat and jolly, and although there was a range of quite severe disabilities amongst the DBE players it certainly didn’t deter their determination.  It was heartwarming to watch.  The fact we lost didn’t matter as the Devizes team took it all in good part and the camaraderie became the most important aspect of the day.  Thank you to all the Devizes members who played and made it the success it proved to be.

A very BIG thank you to the catering team – Jane Thompson, Sue Coombes-Daniels, Vron Hams, Babs Galloway and Helen Abbots-Darbyshire for providing a first class tea, and also Sheila Turner and Terry Miles for manning the Bar.  Thank you also to the members who made such delicious cakes and  thank you to our President, David Greenwood, who came along to meet and greet the players.

Devizes Bowls Club was showcased at its best, you should all feel very proud.

Balcomb Trophy 2025

Devizes Bowls Club did an amazing job hosting the Balcomb Trophy, and it was all made possible by an equally amazing team of volunteers working together preparing the greens and the premises, preparing and serving food and running the bar, and of course promoting & managing the event and dealing with the media – well done all concerned!

Congratulations to Dave Pretty

This is an excellent achievement and an inspiration to us all…

Well done Dave, on passing your Level 3 assessment whilst marking at the Balcomb Trophy!

Level 3 is the highest possible in Bowls England, which means Dave is now qualified to mark any Bowls England game, including National Finals!

Markers Course

The Markers Course run by the EBUA was a great success.  The indoor theory and outdoor practical sessions were quite intense and very informative but presented in a very relaxed and comprehensive fashion… and one of the coaches was none other than the Chief Umpire of the World Indoor Bowls Championships, Mr Allan Thornhill www.allanthornhill.com

Thanks to the members who attended and thank you to the great team in the kitchen who kept everyone fed and watered all day.
