Does any body on the forum play?

Depends, would there be cake?

Yes! Space cake

Mam and Dad do.

Where abouts isit your from?

One of my mates, (who uses this forum) does. Will give him the heads up on this thread

Wakefield.

I do, although a knee op means I'm not playing this year.

Bit too genteel for me im afraid.

Unless when you make a good shot you can get away with the liberal use of profanity and crotch chops.

Kool, iv bowled in wakefield before, some nice greens over here, i play for Yorkshire Juniors(u1icon_cool.gif

Old man's rugby

When we were kids ( 11-15) we used to go and play nearly every night at our local green. It was only 20p or something like that to hire out your bowls. We actually got quite good at it and some of us got our own bowls and played for the local team.

It's actually a really good game to play. Much better than that indoor stuff you see at the olympics as you have to take into account the slope and contours of the green.

i used to get the p**s taken out of me at school for playing it as its an 'old mans game' but to be fair the average age on my team is around 35, and there is about 4 players under 18 thats play for my TEAM not my club just my team, everybody says oh its a piece of cake just bowling to the little on but to be fair, its took me 8 years to become county level and it really is a tricky game especially when the greens are running really fast.

I used to play but hated the fact it was on a Monday night. My mother still plays to county level though.

I am a member of the bowling club next to knowsley road, haven't played for ages though!
