Green Opening 2022

On Saturday 23rd April, Bill Thomas, 102 years old, rolled the first wood as Battle Bowls Club formally opened their green for the 2022 season. The club, current Rother League champions, are hoping for a full programme of fixtures for the first time since 2019.

David Thomas (no relation) of Project Leaders Ltd presented the club’s President, Bruce Cripps, with a state of the art Automatic External Defibrillator device (AED) to supplement the club’s existing First Aid capability for their members. Bruce thanked David for his company’s kind donation and confirmed that the club currently has four members trained in its use and is committed to expanding this with further training.
