Greens Reopening
Waterloo BC, Denby Dale, Kirkheaton Con and the Oakfield Tennis & Bowling Club are the latest local clubs to announce a reopening date for their bowling greens.
Waterloo have posted on their Facebook pages that they will reopen on Monday 29 March which is the first date allowed under the Government's Road Map. Then the Oakfield website states that their green will be open from Saturday 3 April. Bookings can be made via the Jezzam system on the Oakfield website. The site also says that the tennis courts will be open from Sunday 28 March which I suspect may be an error.
Kirkheaton Con will be open to members from Monday 29 March but you need to book in advance. Book your timeslot through Dave Fox on 07545 928 994
Thank you to Pat Wright for informing me of Denby Dale plans to reopen next Monday, Play by booking in advance only (telephone number awaited although club members may know this already).
The latest list of clubs that have already announced dates when their greens will reopen is below. Currently clubs are not permitted to open their clubhouses or toilets at all. You can add your club to this list by Contacting Us now. This service is open to all Huddersfield area clubs regardless of which leagues they play in.
I have to say that green keepers have been working very hard. All the photos show the greens looking in very good condition..I’m sure they will create a wish in bowlers to get out there for a game.
