For those unable to attend the club are also opening on Thursday and Friday from 5pm to 7.30pm and are keen to increase membership and are offering a substantial discount for the first year making a very affordable introduction to this enjoyable sport and pastime.

The club green is set in unbeatable surroundings with views over the adjacent countryside and the clubhouse has recently been refurbished and extended to a very high standard with the help of lottery funding and now offers a large very well equipped kitchen facility for match day lunches and teas as well as spacious and modern changing rooms, a large meeting room and a well stocked bar.

Anyone coming to the game for the first time will quickly learn that apart from being great fun, the sport also demands skill and a competitive spirit found in all ages.
