Big News is that full planning permission for the new changing rooms has been approved and work on this will start in September at the end of the season when the green closes. We intend to complete the erection of the changing rooms and then look at altering the clubhouse. It is an exciting stage for the Club as the membership increases and with the many more social events taking place out of season in the clubhouse.

On that note our Saturday socials continue to be a great success and will continue every Saturday until April 4th, all being well. Do come along for a chat, or a game or just a drink and, of course, a piece of cake!

Open Day is nearly upon us, Sunday 19th April from 2-4.30pm, and advertising is at present at the clubhouse and will find its way around the village at Easter. Posters are available at the club to put in windows and gardens.

The organisation of Ladies’ Fun Day has started and will take place on 14th August. We have already been approached by some clubs asking about it. It will be the same format as last year (afternoon tea included) but with fewer people; there were too many last year and it is proposed to have 36 players over 6 rinks. Charge will be £10 per player and £7 per guest.

There will also be the Calverley Centenary celebration friendly on Monday 25th May, which will include a BBQ for those involved. It was very popular last year with the confusion of when the Centenary is. This year is the Centenary of play starting.

April and May friendlies are ready for you to sign up to in the club house and the catering and cleaning rotas are also on the notice board.

Don’t forget Registration Day is on Saturday 11th April

See you on the Green!
