Hi Willow
Will these greens be open over winter?
I'm captain of our local team & would love to keep playing as all greens are closing down here this week. Just floodlit competitions left.
-
yes the greens will be open in the winter, that is the main time for us when the weather is cooler,would love to meet new bowlers.
-
As someone who has an interest, but not the bowls; can we hire them or must we bring our own?
May I suggest that a fuller picture is given, i.e. location, costs, will the green be open everyday etc.
Thanks 8)
-
The club is run by the members and anyone who wants a game, needs to come along with a member who will provide some bowls.Or you can just come on chance and hope there is someone there.The cost is 10ytl to play for non- members.The green will be open from Dec.We want to encourage new bowlers to take up the game.
-
Please anyone who is interested in joining our bowling club, just contact us and we will try to help all we can.

Charging them 10 Lira a time will not entice anybody to try, at our club (Premier League champions once again :D) if somebody who has never played the game before comes and tries out, we charge them the grand sum of "nothing"
If they like the game and decide they wish to carry on playing then they can join the club and pay the same as the other members.

well, yes obviously for anyone who is not a bowler and wants to have a go, there is no charge.we want to encourage people to bowl and because this is a new club we have to try and get some funds. Don't forget, in the uk. clubs have been established for years, out here is a totally different thing.
-
Where is it?
-
The new greens are not far from the pelin Hotel in Caliş.The location is in a beautiful setting surrounded by mountains.We will be open for bowling from 1st dec.We have a couple coming from Kalkan tomorrow, who are native South Africans, so word is spreading.So come on everyone and have a look at the work going on, and have a coffee with us!
-
Crabbit, could you please tell us the name of your club, as my partner played a lot of bowls when we were in uk.Does Andy cairns or Kieth Rudman play for your team, because we would like to contact some of his fellow bowlers. one of our club members actually plays for the Globe Bowling Club.

Not surrounded by the Pelin hotel and all the buildings surrounding the Pelin hotel then :D

You go past the Pelin Hotel,follow the river until you get to the open countryside, it used to be called the Ponderosa, not a building in sight!!
