There was a nice gathering of old and new faces at Whitland Bowls Club for the opening of the green for the 2023 season on Friday evening on what was a dry but cold and windy evening.

Chairperson Mrs Cally Jones welcomed the Town Mayor, Mrs Jenny Davies-Scourfield to bowl a wood up the green.

They were joined by the Club’s mens and ladies captains, Timothy Thomas and Chloe Thomas, making history in the club having a father and daughter captain in the same season.

Everyone was treated to a supper of curry and rice which helped to warm them up on the cold evening and washed down by a few beverages.

There will be some taster sessions starting this month for anyone who wants to give it a go - don’t be shy pop over and see what it’s all about.

Pictured with the Mayor are Chloe Thomas, ladies captain; men’s captain, Timothy Thomas; and chairperson Cally Jones.
