Current Affairs

The 2011 season has just got under way and so far our three games have produced reasonable results -- however it is far too early to get carried away.

The winter was once again particularly hard with the green under snow and frost for 10 weeks continuously. This resulted in snow mould producing patches where no growth was taking place. It is slowly recovering but will take time. Every winter seems to bring its own difficulties -- such is the lot of the greenkeeper!

Because of the severe pressure on team selection last season due to lack of members, we decided to have an all out push for new members this year. Jeremy, one of our members produced a first class brochure which we distributed to every letter box in surrounding villages in April and the result was very pleasing. To date we have 12 prospective new members and look forward to their participation in bowls in 2011. To help them on their way we have once again managed to get the Yorkshire County Coaches to come to Sessay and give the benefit of their expertise.

We are all full of enthusiasm for the new season and hope for good weather.
