Pulborough Players Finish the Season on a High!

It's always a shame to get to the end of the outdoor bowls season, especially when the weather still looks fine, but the green needs to rest and recover from the battering it gets over 5 months of regular matches and a lot of roll-ups!
The final match of the season at Pulborough was a three triple friendly against Henfield BC, which is always a treat! After Finals weekend some of the regular players call it a day and move onto indoor bowls, which gives some of our newer players the chance to step in and have a match. Skip Paul Smith had one of our newest players, Michael Lang as Lead and his Wife Sylvia as number 2 and they had a fantastic match, taking the game to the away side and only narrowly missing out on a win. Malcolm Gray's team of newer members, Steve Bicknell and Etienne Kearns had a fantastic second half of the match, after the break for tea at 9 ends, they came back to take a further 18 shots to finish on 27 shots to 6, but Top rink of the day went to Skip Jane Gray, with Melvin Green as Lead and L.A Feldmanis as 2, after winning 13/18 ends to win by an impressive 33/9! The final score was 75/34 to Pulborough, a strong result to finish the season!
On Thursday the 17th September Arundel BC held their charity "Neighbours Day" in aid of Neuroblastoma. 12 triples took part, playing 4 matches of 5 ends, after which the highest final score would determine the winning team. The theme was "green", so players had to dress in as much green as possible to add to the fun of the day and the "Bowling Babes" from Pulborough were no exception! Skip Jane Gray, with Alison Forster as Lead and Nicola Pells as 2 beat Storrington 7/1, the Arundel Pina Coladas 5/4, the Arundel L***r Louts 12/1 and the Arundel Gin Fizzes 6/2, to finish second to Storrington by just 1 shot on 30 shots to 8, a fantastic result on a very fun day! What a way to finish the season!
Saturday the 19th saw the annual postseason works party, when members come together to put the green to bed for the winter and tidy the club and grounds ready for the offseason. About 20 members gave their time voluntarily during the day, removing, cleaning and storing the ditch linings, maintaining the gardens and edges, weather-proofing the smoking shelter, scarifying, mowing and tining the green and running grass to the dump, amongst other jobs both inside and out and my thanks go out to everyone who helped on the day, see you all out on the green next season, or indoors for shortmat bowls over the winter.

Pulborough Players Let Their Hair Down in Club Finale'

With the serious business of the Club Finals out of the way, the last few club matches are friendlies and club days, giving the Pulborough BC members a chance to relax and enjoy playing bowls, which is what it's all about!
On Weds the 9th of September, a team from Burgess Hill BC came to Pulborough for a 3 triple friendly, hoping to reverse the win that Pulborough had a few weeks ago at their green and they certainly got their wish, with 3/3 wins and a fantastic display of quality bowling, in amongst the banter, that goes hand in hand with a club friendly at Pulborough!
With both the Club Captain and President unavailable for the Captain v President "ASHES", a club day was created to give the players some competition and a final chance for many to play on the green before it closes for renovation next week.
17 players put their names forward, with two sharing half a match each. The names were split into 2 random groups with Vice Captain Steve Adsett and Past President Malcolm Gray as team Captains. One Rink of 4 players and 2 pairs played 18 ends of fun-filled bowls, with a casual or fancy dress theme, making for some interesting outfits! Malcolm's team of Jane Gray, Jeffe Elliott, LA Feldmanis, Mike Ryan, Poppy Pells, Dave Fuller, a junior member and Etienne Kearns, played against Steve's team of Paul Smith, Sylvia Smith, Mike Lang, Jacob Pells, Alfie Fuller, Fran Perks and Nicola Pells. For most of the match it looked like Steve's team would walk to the win, but a convincing win by Malcolm's rink of Jane, LA/Mike Ryan and Jeffe pulled away to win by 13 shots 23/10, which covered the two losses on the pairs by 2 shots a piece and took top rink of the day! A tub of roses went to the winning team, but the result really didn't matter, as it was all about team spirit and letting your hair down!
Next week will see the final friendly on Tuesday afternoon against Henfield BC, after which the green will close for the season, but the ladies triple of Jane Gray, Nicola Pells and Alison Forster will head over to Arundel BC to play in their charity "Neighbours Day", in aid of Neuroblasoma. The dress code is green, so the outfits should be fun!

Pulborough BC Finals Weekend is a Huge Success!

The August Bank Holiday weekend is traditionally the home of President's Day at Pulborough Bowls Club and 2026 was no exception, with play starting at 2pm on Monday afternoon. Six drawn triples played 3 rounds of 7 ends against different teams on different rinks, with the winners being decided on shot difference. Malcolm Gray's team of Mike Ryan and a junior member lost their first 2 matches, but won by 12 shots to 1 in their third to reach +9, whereas Marc Pells, Jeffe Elliott and Sylvia Smith won all three matches to sneak the win by +10 shots and take away the engraved wh**ky tumblers. A fantastic day of bowls in good company.

An away friendly at Marine Gardens in Worthing is always interesting, as you never quite know what the pace of the green will be and we can safely say that it was quite a push on this occasion! The banter on the green was fantastic and all three triples had a smile on their faces at the end of the match, despite a mixed bag of results over the 3 triples! Jeffe Elliott's rink managed a draw with 15 shots a piece, but Jane Gray's rink of Nicola Pells and Melvin Green couldn't put a foot wrong, going into tea at 9 ends with 13 shots in hand, but they didn't take their foot off the gas, taking 8 shots on the 17th end and a win by 37 shots to 5 - impressive! The final score as a result was 59/43 to Pulborough!

Finals weekend at PBC is a chance for the top players to show their skills on the green and put on a show for the watching spectators and they didn't disappoint! The Drawn Pairs went to Dave Cobbold and his junior partner after just 12 ends of intense bowls resulted in a convincing win 15/3. The 4 Wood Handicap was a tight match, with Ian Younger needing to get to 25 shots and just losing out to Dave Fuller, who reached the finishing post, after a 27 end nail-biting match!

The Novice Salver, reserved for the newer members of the club, was contested by Sonia Burden and Nicola Pells and again, went to 27 ends, after Nicola got stuck on 19 shots and let Sonia catch up, before resetting and hauling herself over the finishing line to claim the silver salver by 21 shots to 19! Jane Gray and Steve Adsett played each other in the 2 Wood Handicap final at 2pm and after a slow start, Jane took the win for the second time in 16 years at the club.

The final match on Saturday was the Junior championship for members under 18 years. Jeremiel Kwame, in just his first season at the club, had a strong start, matching his opponents scores until the 10th end, when first season nerves kicked in and his more experienced opposition piled on the pressure to take the win 22/13, but there's always next year!

Sunday the 6th kicked off at midday with the Diggle Cup, or 3,2,1, where the first 3 woods closest to the jack score 3 points, 2 points and 1, giving a possible 6 points available every end and the first to 71 taking the win. Ian Younger and Jacob Pells put on a great show, with Ian just keeping his nose in front until the 20th end when they pulled level on 60 shots each, but Ian started the final end 70 shots to 68 up, meaning he only needed 3rd shot to win, but he went two better and got shot wood, taking him to 73 and completing his run of wins in all the club competitions throughout his time at Pulborough BC, to date!

Unfortunately in it's very first year the Senior Championship couldn't be completed due to one player falling ill prior to the finals, so the new, shiny cup was awarded to the other player, Ian Younger for reaching the final match.

The longest match of the weekend went to Nicola Pells and Dave Fuller in the Novice Cup, taking it to 27 ends after going into the 26th 20/20 and Nicola stealing the win by a final 2 shots!

Jane Gray started her defense of the Ladies Championship title at 2.30pm, playing L.A Feldmanis in a tense match of 16 ends, with the early momentum going to LA, sitting 4/0 up in the first 2 ends, but after winning the 3rd by 1 shot, the match turned towards Jane and the title was retained, despite LA playing a fantastic match and some cracking shots to change the head!

Steve Adsett and his junior opponent played the flagship event, the Men's Championship at 4pm and an on form Steve was in no mood to be lenient, taking the win 22/11 after just 19 ends, not easy against a player who has won against tough competition to reach the final.

The trophy presentations were made by President Terry Chriss, Captain Marc Pells and Competition Secretary Steve Adsett, followed by a bbq and numerous drinks at the bar! The Captain's Cup, in recognition of services to the Bowls Club over the year, went to Alison Forster and a bottle of brandy was given to National Umpire, Ian Phillips, in thanks for all his help umpiring Finals weekend and other club competitions throughout the year.

Finals weekend was a huge success, with both new and repeat winners getting their names engraved on the trophies for 2026, but next year may be a different story, with new names vying for the top spots!

Pulborough Retain Division 1 Status!

As the 2026 bowls season begins to draw to a close, the final standings in both the Men's West Sussex Bowls League and mixed Brookes Motors League have been decided and clubs can begin to plan fixtures for next season.
Pulborough's final match in the BML League was against Norfolk BC on Thursday afternoon. Two League triples and a friendly played 18 ends of competitive bowls, with two rinks going to the home side. The friendly rink of Jeffe Elliott, L.A Feldmanis and Melvin Green battled from start to finish, taking 4 shots over the last 2 ends to steal the win 15/11 and take Top Rink. Skip Terry Chriss, with Alfie Fuller as Lead and Nicola Pells as 2 secured the only 2 League points for Pulborough, winning by just 1 shot, 18/17.
Pulborough finished their Brookes Motors League campaign for 2026 3rd in the Division 1 table on 43 points and a +66 shot difference, just behind Middleton in second place and Chichester in 1st.
After a tense wait it was finally announced that Pulborough will remain in Division 1 of the West Sussex Bowls League for 2027, after just 1 team was demoted to Division 2. A fantastic achievement after a tricky year of mixed results against tough opposition, but with a chance to reset and regroup over the Winter, Pulborough BC will come back stronger in 2027!
Friday the 28th saw the annual visit by the Sussex Vice Patrons for a 2pm start. Four rinks played 18 ends under threatening skies, with a split result giving 2 wins for Pulborough and 2 for the VP's and the overall result by a narrow margin 68 shots to 63! Steve Adsett's rink of Nicola Pells, Brian Maughan and Ian Younger kept their noses in front from the start, winning by 15 shots to 12, whilst Top rink went to the youngest rink of Skip Alex Herbert, with Alfie Fuller as Lead, Ray Hall as 2 and another junior as 3, after a 4 on the final end sealed their win! A fantastic game full of skill and banter amongst friends.
Next week will see a friendly away at Marine Gardens, followed by Club Finals weekend - good luck everyone!

Pulborough Pair Play Mixed Pairs County Final!

A packed week for Pulborough BC began with a home friendly against our friends from Ewhurst BC on Wednesday afternoon. Four triples played 18 ends, with a full spectrum of results, one win, one draw and two narrow losses by just 1 shot! Ian Younger's team of Sonia Burden and Alison Forster kept the scores tight throughout the match, taking the lead from halfway, only to be hauled back to a draw on end 18! Top rink went to Skip Jane Gray, with Melvin Green as Lead and Jeremiel Kwame as 2, after a 6 on the 6th end catapulted them into the lead, never to look back! They finished on an impressive 27 shots to 10, giving an overall score of 75 shots to 55!
Next up was Pulborough's penultimate match in the Brookes Motors League, at home to Petworth BC on Thursday afternoon. The friendly rink, made up of Sylvia Smith, Etienne Kearns and one of our talented juniors, who played alongside the League, had the best result, winning by 38 shots to 6! Of the 2 League triples Terry Chriss's team of Alfie Fuller and Nicola Pells stormed ahead from halfway to win convincingly 25/11, whilst Malcolm Gray, Jane Gray and Jeffe Elliott had to fight back from 14/3 down on the 7th end to steal the win by 17/15, giving Pulborough a valuable 6 League points and security in the Div 1 League table for 2026.
In County news, Steve Adsett and Nicola Pells played in the Sussex County Mixed Pairs Final at Horsham BC on Saturday morning against Mark Strong and Lea from Buxsted Park. After keeping the scores close throughout and going 15/14 up on the 15th end, they narrowly lost out on the win, but should be really proud to have made it all the way to the Final!
Sunday the 23rd saw the final round in Pulborough's bid to stay in Division 1 of the West Sussex Bowls League for 2027, playing bottom placed Maltravers in an eighteen end finale that would decide who sits in the relegation zone. Four rinks played in ideal conditions, with a friendly ladies rink alongside, which went the way of the visitors after an initially close start. The pressure was on to get the full quota of points and Pulborough was close to delivering just that, but one rink had a tough time and just lost out, giving the home side just 8/10 points and a difficult wait to see how many teams are heading down into Division 2 next season!
Top rink for Pulborough went to Skip Malcolm Gray, with Richard Burden as Lead, Jeremiel Kwame as 2 and Alex Herbert as 3, after winning all bar 6 ends and dropping just 6 shots to finish 21/6 up!
As thoughts now turn to Club Finals in early September, any match practice is valuable and next week will see the last BML League match at home to Norfolk on Thursday, a visit from the Sussex Vice Patrons on Friday and a friendly against Stedham on Saturday, spectators always welcome.

It's A Clean Sweep for Pulborough BC With 2/2 Wins this Week!

It's a rare occasion for Pulborough players to head to a new club for a fixture, but an away match at Burgess Hill BC was a hotly anticipated game. 3 Pulborough triples were welcomed onto a quality green for 18 ends of banter-filled bowls! When players headed into for refreshments at halfway, the away side were already 11 shots ahead and the final result was 2 wins and a draw for Pulborough, with Malcolm Gray's triple of Jeremiel Kwame and Alison Forster pulling ahead in the final 6 ends to win by 17 shots to 12, whilst Top Rink, by just 1 shot, went to Skip Jane Gray, with Sonia Burden as Lead and Paul Smith as 2 who finished 22/16. Thoughts now turn to the return fixture on the 9th of September, when Burgess Hill will try to turn the tide in their favour and beat Pulborough at home!
With the heat cancellation of the Pulborough Churches fixture on Thursday evening, the next match was the Penultimate West Sussex Bowls League match at home to Worthing Pavilion, who never really got started! 4 rinks played 18 ends of one-sided bowls, with the home side already ahead by 21 shots at halfway and taking a valuable 8/10 League points for the overall match win by 88/52 and 3 rinks!

Pulborough BC Showcases it's Green and Facilities in Men's Triples Competition!

With the temperatures showing no signs of dropping out, Pulborough played the first of two home League matches, the mixed BML League, on Thursday the 30th at 6pm against Chichester BC. Two triples played 18 ends of competitive bowls, with the team on rink 3 battling from 5/7 down on the 8th end, to score 5 shots on the 14th end and pull away from the Chi triple to finish 23 shots to just 9! Top rink went to Skip and Captain, Marc Pells, with Jane Gray as Lead and his Son, Jacob as 2, after taking 6 shots on the first end, they didn't look back, dominating the game to finish 31/10 up, quite a convincing win! The final result was the full 6 League points to Pulborough and a healthy +35 shot difference!
The toughest game of the week was a home West Sussex Bowls League match against Southbourne on Saturday afternoon in hot conditions. 4 rinks played 18 ends, with Southbourne noticeably stacking two teams with their best players to try to secure the win by getting the overall score, but their tactic let them down, with Pulborough just making it over the finishing line by 73/67, largely due to Dave Cobbold's rink taking 5 shots on the last end to close the gap and two Pulborough rinks winning by 17 shots to cover any deficit on the two losing rinks! Top rink with +13 shots was Skip Malcolm Gray, with Richard Burden as Lead, Paul Smith as 2 and Alex Herbert as 3, who managed two 5's during the match and 12 winning ends!
The highlight of the week was the Pulborough BC Greenkeeper's Men's Triples on Sunday, kindly sponsored by Bryders Funeral Directors of Pulborough. It was a very early start for all the helpers, with players arriving from 8.15am and the club needing to be set up to welcome them! It was fantastic to see everyone pulling together to host the day, with some key people taking on important rolls, such as Ian Younger running the bar, Alison Forster and Jane Gray running the kitchen, L.A Feldmanis running the tea urn, Jenny Miland-Taylor, Ray Hall and Steve Adsett scoring, Alex Herbert and Malcolm Gray looking after the players and Steve Bicknell, Linda Green and Sylvia Smith putting the kitchen back together after the mayhem of lunch service! Our friendly National Umpire, Ian Phillips of Fittleworth oversaw the day and kept the play in order, so he has our thanks for giving his time for free.
12 teams took part including one Pulborough triple of Jeffe Elliott, Melvin Green and a junior member, who came middle of their group after winning 2/4 matches. Every team played 4 matches of 7 ends in alternate sessions for the Red and Blue Groups. After the 4 matches Fiddlers 3 and Worthing Wombats came second in their groups and played for 3rd and 4th place, with Fiddlers 3 taking the win by 5 shots to 3. The top spot was contested by the 3 L'S from Worthing and the Dream Team, with the latter retaining the winner's shield and taking home £120 in prize money, with a score of 9/3. A fantastic day full of team spirit, compliments on the green, drinks and cake, putting Pulborough BC and it's members in a positive light thanks to a lot of hard work!Next week will see Pulborough players contest the Area Finals of both the Mixed Pairs and Mixed Fours, play in the Witterings Men's Open and play League matches against Norfolk BC and Tarring Priory, another busy week!

Pulborough Players Pull Out the Stops in Their Pursuit of League Points!

Another packed week at Pulborough Bowls Club began with a visit from year 5 pupils from St Mary's C of E Primary School in Pulborough on Monday afternoon. 19 pupils, aged 10 and upwards and their teachers arrived at the club at 1.15pm, to be welcomed by the club Captain, Marc Pells and Secretary, Jane Gray, before being given instruction on how to bowl and how to look after the green and themselves whilst at the club. The usual organised chaos ensued, with a mixed bag of natural bowling talent on display. The second session saw 26 pupils arrive to have a go, putting the members' patience and skills to the test, but Marc, Jane, Linda, Poppy, Richard, LA and Mike survived the experience and hopefully encouraged some of the next generation to think again about possibly trying bowls in the future!
With Pulborough struggling to gain points in both Leagues this season, a turnaround in form was well overdue, so a home fixture in the Brookes Motors League against Southbourne yielding the full 6 points for 2 rink wins and an overall score of 69 shots to 15, was bound to lift the spirits! Top rink went to Captain Marc Pells, with Jane Gray as Lead and Jacob Pells as 2, 39/10!
Saturday saw the next round of the Men's West Sussex Bowls League at Pulborough against Chichester BC. 4 rinks took to the green for a 6pm start and the scores were close throughout, but Pulborough managed to secure 2 rinks wins, Skipped by John Brown and Dave Cobbold and the overall score, giving them 6/10 League point and the win. Hopefully the start of a positive run for Pulborough BC!
Sunday the 26th heralded the 4th George Lewis Handicap Pairs, in memory of George, a much loved club member, bowler, Father to Jenny Usherwood and Jane Gray and Husband to Elaine Lewis, with all 3 being present to present the two pewter tankards to the winning pair. 10 pairs played, with the semi-finals being contested by Poppy Pells & Alfie Fuller v Sonia Burden & Dave Fuller and Alex Herbert & Malcolm Gray v Alison Forster & a junior member. Our two youngest members, Poppy and Alfie won by 11 shots to 9 over the 15 ends and Alison and her partner won by the same margin. The final was played over a further 15 ends, with the scores being tied on 12 shots each going into the final end, but Alison and her partner took the win with an impressive 3 shot final end to win by 15 shots to 12! A fantastic day of bowling that George would have enjoyed!
Next week will see Chichester return to play Pulborough in the Brookes Motors League on Thursday evening, Southbourn in the WSBL on Saturday and the Pulborough Men's Triples competition on Sunday from 9am, let's hope the temperatures don't get too steamy!

Pulborough Pair Reach the County Mixed Pairs Area Final!

A packed week of bowling at Pulborough saw positive results across the spectrum, from County to Club, showing the improvements in bowling from the entire membership!
First up was a three triple friendly away at Cranleigh in Surrey. After 18 ends of tough bowling, two triples came out on top, with Jacob Pells, Alison Forster and Richard Burden taking Top rink by 17 shots to 7 and making up the deficit to give Pulborough the overall win by 46 shots to 41!
2026 marks Petworth Bowls Club Centenary year and Pulborough entered a team into their Invitation 4's competition on Thursday the 16th July. John Brown, Marc Pells, Ray Knight and James Barber braved the scorching conditions to come back with a fantastic 4th place certificate after coming second to the Sussex Under 25's in Group B with 8 points and a +1 shot difference, a fantastic result, well done everyone!
The Annual visit by the West Sussex Tourists is always a treat and this year was no exception, with 12 larger-than-life characters showing their decades of skill on the Pulborough green and giving our team a lesson in quality bowling! The first 9 ends looked promising, but after stopping halfway for platters of home made cake the Tourists seemed to find an extra gear, except on rink 6, skipped by Steve Adsett, with Jane Gray as 2 and Jeremiel Kwame as Lead, who only relinquished 5 shots to their own 26 to take Top Rink! The final score was 64/59 to the Tourists, but a great day in good company of bowling makes up for the result!
The final match of the week was the next round of the men's West Sussex Bowls League away at Bognor and Pulborough's final away League match of 2026, which is always a challenge on a less than ideal green! But despite the difficult surface, Pulborough didn't come away empty handed, taking 2 more valuable League points to help with their fight to stay in Div 1 for 2027! Top rink went to Skip Dave Cobbold, with a Junior player as Lead, Brian Maughan as 2 and Ian Younger as 3 and with some consistent scoring they pulled out a 26/9 win to reduce Pulborough's shot difference to just -15 shots!
In County news, Steve Adsett and Nicola Pells beat Paul Smith and Liz Campling from Chichester 19/15 to reach the Area Final of the Sussex Mixed Pairs competition on Thursday the 6th Aug, Congratulations, especially to Nicola, who is only just starting on her County journey!
Jane Gray also played in the Sussex County Ladies Two Wood semi-final on Sunday the 19th at Preston BC, but despite taking her opponent, Vanessa Mellor from Southwater BC, to the full 21 ends, lost out to a fantastic wood on the final end to finish her County comp journey for this season, roll on 2027!
Next week will see a visit from St Mary's Primary School on Monday afternoon, a mixed League match at home against Southbourne on Wednesday, the next round of the WSBL at home to Chichester on Friday evening and the George Lewis Handicap Pairs on Sunday, another packed week!
