Great Win For Longdendale Team
Congratulations to our Saturday Longdendale team who beat undefeated Etherow by 12 points to 4 on 7 August away from home. There were some great wins by six of our bowlers, especially new bowler Simon Turner who has won 3 out of 3 games this season.
Use of the Bowling Greens
As a result of the Government’s easing of Covid 19 restrictions from 19 July, it will no longer be necessary to book the bowling green from this date. If you want to play you just need to turn up. If there is a match taking place, please use the bottom green.
All Government guidance on how to prevent the spread of the virus should be followed when you are on the green.

Tameside Vets and Ladies Leagues
Regrettably we are withdrawing from both the Tameside Vets and Tameside Ladies leagues due to shortage of players. The door is open to us to return to the leagues next season if we can increase the number of players.
The ladies team is still intending to practice on Wednesday evenings and play friendlies against other clubs in the area.
Green Opening from beginning of April
We are hoping to open the green from the beginning of April. We applied fertiliser last Wednesday and will be scarifying the green at the end of March, subject to weather conditions, after which we should be good to go.
