Howard Park Bowls Club is inviting everyone to come and give short mat bowls a try, with open days on Friday, September 22, and Saturday, September 23, from 10am–2pm and 4pm to 8pm.

Short mat bowls is a fun and inclusive sport that can be enjoyed by people of all ages and abilities. It is played on a synthetic mat, using smaller, lighter bowls than lawn bowls.

The clubhouse is located in St Andrews Road, South Ham, RG22 6PT.

If you are interested but can't make the open days, you can call bowls club chairman Alan Tait on 07392 064252.
