For those of you who thought that the Autumn renovations was the end of the work for the Greens Team until the season start, how wrong can you be.

We have been regularly mowing ! Slit tining , fertilising , spraying fungicides and lots of clearing up .

Trefor has been constantly examining the greens along with Dave and the corresponding actions taken mostly by a limited number from the team.

Today with 6 of the team members we were able, on both greens, to brush, mow and spray fungicide and Aquaritin . Moss was raked around the edges of the bottom green, ditches cleared, edging done and general tidy up. A great achievement !

We take this opportunity to remind all members that the team needs more support so do not hesitate to offer your help there is always something to do.

Just contact any of the team you know who they are don’t you !

I would like to thank the Social Group on behalf of the Committee and the members there for a most enjoyable evening yesterday.

The entertainment was good, the food was fantastic, the crafting was great fun and the company was excellent. So thank you Darren, Wendy, Chris and Babs plus all the other elves you got to assist. As always grateful thanks to our bar staff, you were kept very busy.

The Devizes Dragons 2023 team, comprising of Kelvin & Pam Nash, Chris & Dave Pretty, John Scoffield, Lynne Williams, Kevin Hannam, Nicky Mackay and Doug Hendry finished runners up in the Wiltshire Central League. The shield was presented at the Wiltshire Short Mat County and National Qualifiers in Chippenham on Sunday.

John, Pam and Kelvin played against the County’s best players and gave them all a run for their money!

Kelvin reached the quarterfinals, and was very narrowly beaten to a place in the semifinals! 

Devizes Bowls Club has numerous opportunities for its members to participate in competitive bowling in men’s and ladies leagues across Wiltshire, as well as arranging friendly matches across the county and beyond. There are also club activities to help develop bowling skills, and prepare newer bowlers for league play.

There are evening and daytime sessions, and the chance to play other clubs… either friendlies or more competitively in the Wiltshire league.

Cheers, Terry, Angie, Colin & Kelvin
