and live on Freeview channel 276
Fareham Bowls Club, in Leigh Road, Fareham, is inviting people to find out all about bowls at a free taster session on Sunday, May 28. The move comes as part of Bowls England’s ‘Big Weekend’ promotional drive which encourages member clubs to open their doors to the public.
Charlie Bailey, President at the club for 2023 said: ‘It’s a great opportunity, all equipment is provided, plus some basic training to get you started. Come and find out if bowling is for you. Our summer season is already underway with matches played at home and away at other clubs around the area. Evenings, weekends and even during the day you can enjoy the game. There are great health benefits, being outdoors in the fresh air and gentle exercise too.’
