Bowls club pleased to welcome new blood
ARUN INDOOR Bowling Club coach and member Sonia Heil gives Maureen Robinson, her daughter Tracy and grandchildren, Laura, 12, and Ben, 13, some tips on the sport as a new generation of bowlers give it a try.
The scene came at the Nyewood Lane club's first open day of two planned this year.
The club was awash with people who wanted to give the sport a go.
Not everyone signed up for coaching or immediate membership, but 27 people did.
Members said more than 50 people visited the club during the day, including many youngsters – who club officials were particularly pleased to see taking an interest.
Raffles, target bowls and items for sale raised 250 for the club, and more than 200 was raised for leukaemia research.
The club thanked the Observer for boosting attendance with a feature on their activities in the paper a fortnight ago.
