SUMMER LEAGUES

Wednesday 10.30am New!! 100 Up League & Friday 10.30am Aussie Pairs League – both leagues are being run on an accumulator basis where only your best 12 scores/results count, so you can miss a few weeks and still be in the count.

New!!!  Wednesday Night is Singles Night (in Summer) – three sets games of singles – up to 20 players a night but no commitment to come every week. Book your place with James by Tuesday morning each week.

Yorkshire Two Rink Triples League (Mixed) – we have a team entered so need volunteers to play – dates to be arranged. Please sign up on Yorkshire Board if interested to play one or more games

A list of all current winter leagues plus other playing opportunities can be found on the Bowling Opportunities page.
