Senior Blades Newsletter July 2020

 

Hi to all Senior Blades

It hasn’t been the restart we wanted with three away games, but we are still up there in the top half of the Premier League. Last August we would have been happy in 15th position, so let’s push on with the last seven games and take a few more memories from our return to the PREMIER LEAGUE.

                                                                 CANCELLATIONS

The two events we had in the diary for September have now been cancelled. The  AWAY DAY  to Skegness is postponed until May 2021, Sue Foster will have all the details in the new year, and the next BOWLS TOURNAMENT will now take place in September 2021.

We have a couple more quizzes for you this month and also the answers to the quizzes we set in June.
