Exciting Changes for the 2025 Bowling Season

As the new bowling season approaches, we at Mayfield Park Bowling Club are eagerly preparing for the spring opening of our green on the 12th of April. This season is particularly significant for us, as it marks a historic moment: for the first time in our 66-year history, the club will take full responsibility for the maintenance of the green and the upkeep of the club’s grounds and facilities. Throughout the winter, our dedicated members have been working tirelessly alongside a professional green maintenance company contracted to handle essential off-season preparation of the playing surface. Despite a minor setback, when a fox attempted to make our cherished green its new home by digging a burrow: our maintenance team swiftly repaired the damage, and thankfully, the fox has since moved on. Taking charge of the green’s maintenance has been both a rewarding and educational experience for our members. It has strengthened our sense of community and brought us closer together as we work towards our shared goal of creating a top-quality bowling green, we can all be proud of. We’re thrilled to say that the hard work has paid off—the green is in a fantastic condition, arguably the best it has been for a number of years. Whilst there is still ongoing work as we approach the new season, we are confident that Mayfield Park Bowling Club will provide our members and visiting clubs with a much-improved playing experience. In addition to the improvements made to the green, we have also revitalized the borders and flower beds surrounding the green. Several overgrown bushes were removed and replaced with fresh, vibrant plants, enhancing the overall atmosphere of the club and creating a welcoming environment for everyone. We’ve also received numerous positive and encouraging compliments from members of the public using the park, who regularly walk their dogs past our club, praising the improved appearance of the grounds and congratulating us on hard work and our efforts. We warmly invite you to come and see the changes for yourself—and perhaps join us for a game of lawn bowls!?
