Events Week 31st May

Dear members,

Please read the attached document which details the bowling events involving our Club during the week beginning Monday 31 May.

On Tuesday afternoon, our North & West Seniors’ teams have league matches with the ‘A’ team at home to Tanfield B.C. and the ‘B’ team away to Queensberry B.C. Good luck, guys.

On Wednesday night, the EBA Leagues matches take place with the First XII away to Bainfield B.C. and the Second XII at home to Bainfield. All the best, guys.

On Thursday afternoon, our Retired Men’s Bowling Association league matches kick off with a ‘local derby’ between our ‘A’ and ‘B’ teams. We are sure that there will be a fine competitive edge to the match!!

Then, on Thursday evening, the next round of the EBA Australian Pairs competition takes place. Joe Blair & David McNiven are in action against Seafield B.C. at Summerside and Dougie Wilson & Scott Jackson take on Hillside B.C. at Trinity. Stick in, boys.

Finally, another wee heads-up for a couple of internal competitions coming up in June. The annual Bob Horsham Trophy for the Senior Gents will be held on Friday 25 June. There is a list on the Seniors’ Noticeboard if you wish to take part in this competition. Then, on Sunday 27 June, the annual Millar Cup competition will take place. This is a Mixed Pairs event and there is a list posted on the Mixed Noticeboard for any Pairs interested in participating.

CBC – Events 17th May 2021

  • May 18, 2021

Dear members,

With thanks to our communication department (currently based in New Zealand!!) we intend whenever possible to reintroduce the weekly event sheet for your information.

Please read the attached document which details the bowling events involving our Club during the week beginning Monday 17 May.

Although there are fewer events happening than in a ‘normal’ season, at least we have some internal and external competitive bowling to look forward to this year. We hope you all enjoy your bowling in 2021.

Our North & West Seniors begin their League campaigns with a match against each other on Tuesday afternoon. We are sure there will be a healthy rivalry involved in the game!! Enjoy, guys.

The Edinburgh Bowling Association Gents’ League matches begin on Wednesday 19 May with our ‘first’ team away to Juniper Green B.C. and our ‘second’ team taking on Coltbridge B.C. at home. All the best, gents.

The ‘usual’ Hat Night will be held at 6.30pm on Monday evening and this will be supplemented by two Hat Days on Wednesday and Friday (both starting at 1.30pm). These are open to all members. Hopefully, at least one of the sessions will appeal.

Phase 3 Changes – Holding Statement

  • July 11, 2020July 15, 2020

As you are no doubt aware it was announced on Thursday  that Scotland is moving to Phase 3.  Bowls Scotland has issued some revised guidance and the MC are meeting on Monday evening to discuss what changes we can make, that will affect the club.  However we do already know that many things will NOT change.  Please therefore continue with the current procedures.

Still NO access allowed to changing rooms – Bowls etc. must be brought/taken away every time you play.

Booking a rink and sticking to the time slots is STILL required – Registering names of ALL participants must continue

Registering for the Honesty Bar for OUTDOOR drinking remains in place – We MUST know who is using it and when.

All hygiene and Social Distancing measures remain in force and MUST be complied with.

CBC – Bowling Returns??

  • May 21, 2020

All

President Les has asked me to issue the following statement.

In todays (21st May) statement, Nicola Sturgeon indicated that outdoor non-contact sports (including Bowls) may be allowed to resume on or shortly after 28th May, subject to ongoing restrictions on physical distancing, meeting up with other households and on ensuring appropriate hygiene measures are in place.

However it will not be bowls as “Normal”, unfortunately the restrictions will be likely to have an impact on how many people can be at, or on, the green at any one time and therefore the MC will need to ensure that all the required procedures and measures are in place. We have had an indication from guidance seen from other countries what these will be and have already taken some initial steps to enable us to comply, however we await the definitive guidelines from Bowls Scotland before outlining to you the members what is required to enable us to get back on the green.

PLEASE BE ASSURED WE AIM TO DO SO ASAP

David
