Sign up for coaching on September 19

Post date: Sep 9, 2020 10:28:49 AM

Keen to encourage new bowlers to take up the sport, Stamford Indoor Bowls Club is re-launching its latest initiative on Saturday September 19 at 10 am.

Bowlers will receive first class coaching and encouragement from a qualified team, anxious to show them that bowls - one of the few sports where men and women compete on equal terms - attracts all ages from eight to 80 and beyond.

Says club chairman Keith Rippin, himself one of the coaches: "The club has been unable to continue its popular Saturday morning sessions, since Covid-19 regulations closed the club in March. But we are anxious to welcome them back and hopefully attract more newcomers to the sport."

The game, can be both socially rewarding and highly competitive and is particularly attractive to those former sportsmen and sportswomen whom, in their mature years, still want to be competitive.

Owing to Covid-19 regulations, the club is restricted to four students to every coach on each rink and are requesting that potential bowlers sign up in advance by calling the club (01780 756452) during weekday mornings or evenings or contact Keith (01780 754274). BW
