The weekend saw Ottery play host to new players to the sport with their ‘Bowls 4 Fun’ Open days, writes Michael Smith.

BDA coaches John and Terri Ward, together with help from other club members, gave expert advice and coaching to all who attended.

It proved to be a great success with some 18 new players showing a desire to join the club and continue with coaching provided by John and Terri.
