Hanwood Bowling Club, nestled in Shrewsbury's heart, is where bowlers of all ages and skill levels come together. Established in 1924 and a founding member of the Shrewsbury League, this club's got history and pride.
Here's the lowdown from Ursula Longmore, the club's Secretary. The club boasts 8 teams catering to every level:
- 2 senior citizen's teams on Thursday afternoons
- 2 teams on Monday nights
- 2 teams on Tuesday nights
- 2 teams on Friday nights
The top draw? The 1st team, battling it out in the prestigious Shropshire top Bowling League! Last season, they snagged an impressive 5th place, ready to climb higher this year. And with top talent like Birmingham's own Greg Smith in the lineup, you're in for some top-notch play.
The season kicks off on April 3rd and runs till September's end. Bowling's accessible and fun for all, making it a great social activity too. Whether you're keen to play or just watch, you're welcome. By the way, anyone under 18 can join for free!
Interested? Swing by the green behind the Cock Inn, right in the village centre. Got questions? Reach out to Ursula at w. longmore38@btopenworld.com or Phil Talbot at talbot81@btinternet.com.
