IN Paula Roberts’ article Verwood resident Ann Shewan said she has 20 lads around her house every weekend, who cause no trouble but don’t have anywhere else.
Verwood Short Mat Bowling Club run an under-18 section on a Saturday morning, free of charge and the lads that have been with the section since it started in January this year have already progressed to playing in county matches.
As they have proved, bowls is not an “old persons’” sport but can be played at any age starting at 10 years old.
If these lads are serious about trying something different contact me to book a trial session. Call me on 01202 826568.
