Wraysbury Bowls Club took on an entirely new challenge with a visit in March to the Hounslow Indoor Bowls Club for a friendly four rink triples match.
It was likely to be a tough challenge and that is what it proved to be, with Hounslow winning fairly easily on all four rinks for a total score over the 18-end match of 100 shots to Hounslow and 46 shots to Wraysbury.
The Hounslow club has one of the oldest indoor bowls facilities in the country, plenty of car parking, four rinks with a large seating area and a bar, all run by the members.
It was a very enjoyable afternoon, breaking after nine ends for tea/coffee and biscuits, with a raffle held after the match was completed. Most players then enjoyed a drink and a chat and it was well into the evening when we made our way home.
