Community Day

Today the Olton Tavern welcomed AgeUK Solihull (@ageuksolihull) for a community day. Over 30 people new to bowls got their first taste of the sport and a few returned to the game after long term breaks.

After a meal in the club the visitors were given a little lesson and then split into groups of four and aided by club members embarked on a couple of doubles games each.




I would like to thank Christine and the team for organising the event and all the people who came and made it such an entertaining day. Hopefully we have converted some people to bowls and if not we have at least put some smiles on faces and made new friends.

With the visit of Reynolds Cross school to come this year, this wont be the last of our community out reach days. Watch this space for details on future events.











Unfortunately Ageuk Solihull refused to take CJ, one of the clubs elder and most venerable statesmen with them - much to his dismay....
