Stoke Men's League fixtures updated for 2021.

1st March: In the light of below, subject to further clarification/guidance, we'll be looking to start social bowling at the beginning of April. As regards League bowling, the Stoke Men's League and Newcastle Leagues are planning to start 17th May, Oakhill League 11th May, and the Ladies League mid-July. No rumours yet regarding the Saturday League. Would stress these are all rumours/plans and very much subject to change in the light of future events.

Following Boris's update, here is the statement released by the BCGBA:

Once we get the 'return to play' guidance we'll know how to proceed. Hopefully playing again is not too far away. Des and his team are working on the green in readiness.

In other news this young man said he hoped to play bowls when he gets older - he got his wish!

Unfortunately the Club suffered from some more mindless vandalism over the weekend of 16th/17th Jan - nothing too major but still annoying. Thanks to Mick Manning for the running repairs.

Until such time as we are able to hold a formal AGM, Chairman Brian has provided a review of the season letter, which can be found on the History page.

GREEN IS NOW CLOSED FOR THE WINTER.

Latest photo updates on the Pavilion on Events page (30.11).

With the green now closed, are you looking for some alternative gentle exercise til next season - why not try Barlaston Strollers (when lockdown allows)?

Minutes of the latest (07.10.20) Management Committee meeting on History page.

We have a lot of work planned at the green - in this connection the Monday afternoon work party is not an exclusive club(!) - any able-bodied volunteers are welcome to help out - work continues through the winter.

Minutes of the November 2019 AGM, together with the revised Club Constitution now on History page.

Barlaston is an ancient parish and large village of Stafford overlooking the Trent valley.  The name is of Anglo Saxon origin and is derived from Beornwulfs town or estate.  Barlaston is the gateway to the Downs Banks – owned by the National Trust and offering approximately 160 acres of bracken-covered moorland forming an idyllic backdrop to Barlaston village.

Barlaston Bowls Club is a village-based Crown Green Bowls Club offering both competitive League bowls as well as friendly social bowls. Why not come along and give us a try? - you're sure of a warm welcome!
