We are delighted to announce that the club were successful in their bid for funding from the Prestwick and Villages Locality Planning Partnership. The £950 awarded will help our club make bowling accessible to disadvantaged members in the community and further develop the sport’s inclusivity agenda.

Visually Impaired Match Up
Our Visually Impaired bowlers played their usual “grudge” match today (28th January) at the Ayr Indoor. Peter, Paul and (no, not Mary but Bennett!) left their opponents ‘blowing in the wind’ demolishing John, Chris and Isobel 16-3. In truth, it could have been worse as they were often lying 5 or 6 shots before a saving bowl came in.
