The Club 2021 Playing Calendar is now available on the website. Let’s hope that all the planned events can take place this year!
Change of Playing Pistes
From tomorrow, 24 April 2021, the playing pistes will be amended to Pistes 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 & 12. We will add the top pistes back in shortly.

| 5 | 4 |
| 8 | 6 |
| 11 | 8 |

Please be particularly aware of social distancing now that there is only 1 piste between each playing piste.

It’s Competition Time – We Hope!
Subject to the final confirmation of the announcement from the Welsh Government that we will return to Alert Level 3 and 30 people will be allowed at organised outdoor sports from 3 May 2021, the much delayed 2020 Club competitions will take place as follows:
- 2020 Xmas Melee – Sunday 9 May 2021 @ 11:00am (limited to 30 players)
- 2020 Club Doubles – Sunday 16 May 2021 @ 11:00am (limited to 24 players)
The entries made for the original competitions have been deleted so, if you want to enter these competitions, you must book again. The booking system is now open.
Both competitions will take place as melees. The Xmas Melee will be a normal melee, whilst the Club Doubles will be a doubles melee where the pairs will be drawn before the competition and stay together for all 3 rounds. Entries for both competitions are, therefore, from individual players.
Hopefully we will also restart the Monday & Friday roll-ups on Friday 7 May 2021.
All the above is subject to confirmation by Welsh Government.
