The Metro Pairs Bowls Tournament was held on Saturday the 17th of June 2017.  I am pleased to report that our 4 new members Junette, Constance, Wilbert and Gause all took part and did very well.  This year we had 6 pairs, so we had a Round Robin, which meant each team had 5 games. 

“I  had 2 hours of fun playing singles and doubles. Very suitable for blind and partially sighted players. There are 2 tables adapted. I introduced a yellow tennis sound ball and some of the players enjoyed the new experience as the ball seemed to roll better. I was greeted at the ticket barrier and there is an excellent café onsite run by local people with a disability “Unity Works Cafes”.  ”  Roy Smith MBE – call 020 7364 6902 for more info
