Visitors are always very welcome, and Club boules are available for the use of anyone who wants to become familiar with the game before committing themselves to outlaying funds on their own equipment. Paid-up members now number nearly fifty, and with an active committee the club has grown into a prosperous organisation whose members appreciate and enjoy the atmosphere of friendliness and camaraderie which surrounds all games and the social functions which the Club holds throughout the year.
