Registration forms for next season were provided last week and all 18 teams have now registered.

We welcomed two visitors this morning Mel and Sandra Baker who have both registered as League Reserves for next season. They have not registered as a team as Mel and Sandra spend their summers in the UK and their winters in Spain, where they bowl in a league. We look forward to seeing them again when they spend some time here.
