Young’s economy received a boost recently with an influx of bowlers to the town for major tournaments.

The success of these tournaments would not have been possible with sponsorship.
Young Women’s Bowling Club wishes to thank all the sponsors who donated towards prizemoney for the Cherry Festival Ladies Triples and The Cherry Festival Mixed Pairs.
Without these generous local businesses, these very Special Tournaments would not be able to offer the prizemoney they do and attract the numbers of bowlers to the town on this very special occasion in November.
Many of the women who took part in the Cherry Festival Ladies Triples stayed on for the rest of the week and also competed in the Cherry Festival Mixed pairs with husbands or partners.
A total of 96 players took part in the Ladies Triples and 126 players took to the greens in the Mixed Pairs.
These visitors to Young were made to feel welcome and many of them will be back again next year.
Bringing so many visitors to the town each year supports not only the Bowling Club but also the businesses in the town itself.
LOOKING FOR NEW BOWLERS
Don’t rule Lawn Bowls out as a sport.
There are more young bowlers than ever before taking up the sport of bowls.
It is not an old person’s sport as many have labelled it, it is a versatile, exciting, exacting sport that can be played by people of any age from 9 to 90.
Aside for the social benefits of playing bowls it also improves your fitness on many levels.
If you are making that New Year’s Resolution to lose weight, get fit and active and get out more, then Lawn Bowls could be for you.
Gone are the white Uniforms and gone are the severe rules that turned people off Bowls years ago.
These days it is very different on the Bowling Green with brightly coloured representative shirts and a relaxed atmosphere that encourages fun and friendship.
It is a sport you can relax and enjoy in Smart Casual clothes (shirts need a collar) receive Free coaching, use bowls available at the club and there is very little financial outlay.
What more could you want in a sport?
Support your local Club and give Bowls a try.
