Councillor 'bowled over' by open day
Local councillor Monica Whyte has praised Hornsey Bowls Club for its links to the community in its centenary year, after the association held a successful open day designed to entice newcomers into the sport.
The club, which this year celebrates its 100th birthday since being established in 1908, has launched a drive for new members.
As part of these plans, the club will hold a celebratory match at the club on Sunday 29th June in tribute to famous bowls player Sir Francis Drake and club members have been invited to visit Parliament by Hornsey and Wood Green MP Lynne Featherstone.
“Hornsey Bowls Club is a valuable community resource”, remarked Lib Dem councillor Monica Whyte, “and gives a great opportunity for local residents to keep active in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.”
“Lawn bowling has an outdated image for a few people, but with even some teenagers taking up the sport there’s no reason why people of all ages shouldn’t give it a go!”
Residents interested in finding out more or using the club for functions should phone 020 8340 7884.
