Thought I'd share this as Cyprus are in the same section as Ireland. Keep going Cyprus, good luck today, hope the weather improves! Sorry - missing Cyprus Men's Triples, currently lying 3rd in their group.

Wishing "TEAM CYPRUS" the very best in the forthcoming European Bowls Championships, being held in Ayr, Scotland.
18 countries, 181 athletes, the biggest international bowls event in the Northern Hemisphere.
Good bowling, enjoy, go CYPRUS.

Good luck Cyprus.

The teams for the Europeans at Ayr.

We are quite bowled over with this - Rob Archer's latest project and contribution to the club. Looking very nice, thank you.

Please find a link (hopefully) to the bowls magazine "Inside Bowls" - a good article on our National Finals.

Summer Triples Competition concluded today.

Hello Hello took the trophy.
Runners up - The Young Wons
Best Dressed Loosers - One Foot in the Grave.

Thank you to our sponsors, Blevins Franks.

Please see below, a message received from Elaine & Paul Chester (received via Mike & Sara)...........................................................................

Hi Mike and Sara, many thanks, we are now in the UK and slowly getting sorted, still feels like we are on holiday and just visiting (strange feeling) so it hasn't really sunk in we're here for good. But looking forward to new adventures, I did try and go on Coral Bay's page to write a message to all but it appears to be a closed page open only to your admin. But we just wanted to say bye to everyone at your club , we think of you all as friends. We have enjoyed the hard fought battles on the rink and more so the beer and banter off it. We will continue bowling here, but I realise we are starting from scratch here on new surfaces so a challenge to work out way back up the ladder, something I'm looking forward to, no pressure to win 😂🤣, all the best to you both and thanks for some fond memories

Presentation night - well done to all the competition entrants wherever you came.
Thank you to Neo's Sports Club, a fantastic evening.

Summer Triples, sponsored by Blevins Franks is well underway.
