BOWLS COMPETITION PRIZES BOOST

This year’s Ladies Invitation Triples Competition at West Backwell Bowls Club has received a boost with local property specialists Parker’s Estate Agents providing the prize money fund.

The all-day competition will take place on Tuesday August 16 with players from clubs around the area, including Congresbury, Long Ashton, Cheddar, Winscombe and Chew Stoke. Past Captain at West Backwell, Cynthia Burgess, is organising this year’s tournament, which is now in its 30th year. Andrew Simmonds, director at Parker’s Estate Agents, said: “We are keen to see community events return to the village following the restrictions of the last few years. “We have been backing a number of local events, including a recent dog show, so that all members of the community get back to enjoying life together. West Backwell Bowls Club is a well-established gem for the village and other village’s around.”
