14 SEPTEMBER 2021  IMPORTANT NOTICE

CLOSURE OF THE GREEN

RELAYING OF PATHWAY SLABS AROUND CLUBHOUSE AND SEATING AREA

This work will start on Tuesday 21st September 2021. Work will finish on Saturday 25 September but to allow for setting of the concrete infill, members must not go to the Club until Monday 27th September. 

Covers will be put down overlapping onto the green along the path by the tennis courts as well as on the clubhouse side to protect the green while the work is being done. 

This means that the whole green and Club House will not be accessible for the duration of the work 

There will therefore be no play from Tuesday 21st till after Saturday 25th September 2021.

Members will be advised of any changes to this by email or on this website

 

COVID19 UPDATE: AUGUST 2021

ACTON BRIDGE BOWLING CLUB

Covid the way forward:

As a committee we feel the following steps can be taken now with some restrictions to keep everyone safe.

The following restrictions will still apply: 

Social distancing at all times: all current safety precautions need to be followed.

Clean all surfaces you touch, handles, locks, Jacks, etc.
Don’t use Club House to talk to others stay outside as much as possible.
Don’t shake hands before, during or after a game.
 

Wearing of masks: wearing a mask in the club house will be down to the preference of any club member who wishes to do so. (Please respect this, for those who wish to wear a mask).

Track and Trace Forms: Will no longer be required and will stop.

When you leave:
When you finish playing, change your shoes and leave the club as soon as possible – ensuring that you have sanitised all equipment used and anything you have touched, and that the club is secure.

Keeping everyone safe:
We would like to thank the members for their efforts in keeping everyone safe over the last 16 months, and together we can move forward.
 
Please feel free to contact myself or any of the committee if you have any questions.

Acton Bridge Bowling Club Committee.

REPAIRS TO THE SEATING AREA PATHS

Flag Stones:

On the 21st September 2021 work will start under the canopy by the club house and towards the gate, to remove the carpet and make the area safe by levelling the flag stones.

There will be some inconvenience to members but will be kept to a minimum while the work is being done, so please be patient. You will still be able to play, but the area that is being worked on will be out of bounds.

Your patience on this matter is appreciated.
