Leinster Bowling Clubs Charity Bowling Event

 

Getting ready for your Summer Bowling Season why not join us in Leinster Bowling Club on Good Friday 29th March for our Annual Bowling Charity Day for Our Lady`s Hospice and Care Services in Harold`s Cross. I am sure that we are all familiar with the great work that the Hospice does to support a wide range of needs, from residential rehabilitation to end-of-life care. Over 693 medical and general staff and 330 volunteers provide world class person-centred care to help patients and residents achieve their best quality of life and support their family. Every day staff and volunteers uphold the core values of human dignity, compassion, justice, quality and advocacy. They rely on the on-going and generous support from the public to help them meet their healthcare needs, every year they need to fundraise over €5.5 million to support their work.

We will run 2 sessions of bowling first session starting at 10.30am and an afternoon session starting at 2.30pm. Entry fee will be €5.00 and we will also be selling raffle tickets to help us raise much needed funds for the Hospice. If you would like to take part in the bowling please contact any of the names at the bottom of this note indicating the time you would like to play. If you are unable to join us on the day and would like to contribute to this worth cause please let us know. Light refreshments will be provided after each session of bowling and the raffle will take place at the end of the final session. We will have to limit each session to 48 players so get in early to be sure of your game of bowls. Hope to see you in Leinster on the 29th of March

Competition Rules

Following last Saturday’s Council meeting the latest and hopefully the final draft of the Competition Rules can be accessed with the link below.

The draft rules will be on the agenda for approval for the 2024 season at the Annual General Meeting scheduled for Thursday 21st March in Crumlin B.C. at 7.30p.m.

Development League,

Following considerable feedback on the success of last years Development League, the ILB DEVCO decided to run another one ahead of the upcoming 2024 summer season.
 
The League, which is aimed at new and nearly new players, will be held across 3 greens, Herbert Park, Leinster and North Kildare.  Whilst the overarching aim is to get people out enjoying the sport, the structure helps to integrate players into semi-competitive league structures.  Based on last years feedback, participating Clubs really benefited from this.   
 
Section 1 is made up of Crumlin, Greystones, Herbert Park and North Kildare.  Section 2 features Blackrock, Clontarf, Leinster and Ierne.  The first round of fixtures takes place on 25 Feb with the play-offs on 24 March.                          
Best of luck to everyone and enjoy the experience.

Para Bowling

History was made when Ireland played England in the first Para Bowls Test. The Irish side consisting  of bowlers from North and South lost by 3 matches to 2.  For their inaugural international trial this was an excellent result.  The future is bright for Irish Para Bowls.

Above is a photo of the team and their officials and carers.  Included from the ILB are :-
