Herewith a message from the Bowls Management Committee
Hi Everyone

In accordance with Government recommendations on outdoor sport, the Bowls Management Committee has decided that we can recommence bowls at Cheam Fields Club on Tuesday 26th May.

The full message is on the May News Letter sent out today to members,

DID YOU KNOW ?? Played seriously in parts of Northern England and Australia, Table Bowls gives Snooker and Pool players something new and fun. The game is played just like bowls on a lawn except each wood is carefully aimed using a special wooden chute.
A skillful game for two players, table bowls is designed to be played on a billiards table or other flat surface.
There are two different sizes of table bowls - 5.1cm (2 inch) and 5.7cm (2 1/4 inch) in diameter and two corresponding sets. Each set consists of a hardwood chute, an unbiased jack and 4 pairs of table bowls.
The 2 inch set features 4 pairs of bowls, each pair with a different bias. Jack is 1.25 inches diameter.
The bowls in the 2 1/4 inch set all have the same bias. Jack is 1.5 inches diameter.

So Just a bit of fun..... How many of the 27 figures of speech shown in this drawing can you get ????

A Very Sad piece of news regarding Carshalton Beeches Bowling club...... see as follows

https://www.yourlocalguardian.co.uk/…/18351245.sutton-prep…/
March 30th 2020 was a sad, sad day for Carshalton Beeches Bowling Club when the court judgement was delivered in the school's favour. We have agreed to vacate the clubhouse on April 12th.
It has been a long drawn out process and the physical and emotional stress incurred has taken its toll on club members.
Although many of our members will find alternative clubs in due course, nothing will be able to replicate the close, supportive community of over 100 members that has been brought to an end by the court's decision in what would have been our 90th Anniversary year.
The closure, although sad, pales into the distance compared to the lockdown being inflicted by the COVID19 virus. We hope that all readers of this post come through safe and sound, and we look forward to the time when restrictions are eased and we can all get back to enjoying life again
