Should we start bowling later

[mary]

Hello Bowlers

I think there is an argument to opening our greens for two or three weeks later than we do
They are so heavy its only the younger and stronger members that can get up the green, and the damage done in the first two weeks lasts the rest of the Season
I personally wouldn't call it Bowling trying to heave bowls you cant get the line and definitely not the weight only thing us Ladies get are injuries
Does anyone else feel like me:(

Our Bowling Season is short as it is, you cant delay opening day by two weeks, its the same for everyone

Hi Mary can see where you are coming from sometimes think its a shame the County Competitions are right at the beginning of our Season come August September when the greens are running fast there is nothing going on, :roll:

Last year was the worst ever for rain, played every game slipping and sliding around we had a lot of Ladies fall over and had on some games to

abandon and finish them on another day

If we started a couple of weeks later wouldn't make a bit of difference was wet cold the whole Summer Snapper:(

Yes Mary I think it would be wise, I know a few clubs here with grass greens who started about a month later than normal. But then our bowling season seems to be a lot longer than yours.

Would love to start the Season a month later, if last years rainy weather is anything to go by, we wouldn't have opened at all
Good point about the County Comp having them a few weeks later would make sense, You don't know How lucky you are Kiwi Bowler you are
guaranteed a reasonable length of Bowling time during your Season

I would love to start Bowling a month later when the weather warms up, problem is we have a very short Season and its over before we know
Last Spring was shocking with the weather and put everyone off, never know this year we could get some really good weather :D:D Positive thinking LARDY
