Crewkerne Bowling Club

Congratulations to our ladies team for winning their both home and away matches against Watchet. Both teams played extremely well with the home team scoring 17 – 14 and the away team scoring 27 – 19. The highlight of the away match was when Debbie, Sally, Rita and Lynne scored a hotshot on the 13th end. They can now look forward to each receiving a hotshot certificate and badge from the Bowls International Hotshot Club. For those who are not familiar with a hotshot it is when the team scores 8 shots which is the maximum they can get in a four’s competion.
Well done everybody.

Thanks to Lynne for arranging the Lucky Jack Number Draw with proceeds going towards our crowdfunding campaign. Congratulations to our lucky winners. We would also like to thank Barretts the Butchers, Crewkerne Fish Bar, Bilbys and Marilyn for donating prices.

As our fundraising campaign comes to an end we would like to congratulate members and supporters of Crewkerne bowling club for their generosity in exceeding our target of £12,942. You managed to raise a total of £13,523. This money will enable the club to install new steps down to the green and to purchase a water storage tank to improve the green maintenance. Thanks to the members who put together our campaign and those who organised the extra fundraising events. A special thanks to our club members and supporters who got behind the campaign and made it happen. It is so good to see such a spirit of good will and comaraderie throughout our club. We will keep you informed of news of the projects as they progress.
