The Sale and Urmston Bowling Association was founded in 2022 from a merger of the Sale & District Bowling League and the Urmston & District Bowling Association.

We run two leagues playing in the evenings: on Mondays for teams of ten and on Wednesdays for teams of eight.

Historical records for the predecessor leagues can be found via the links on the left.

Monday Pairs competition

There were 15 entries for this competition. It will therefore be run as a one-day event.

The final is on Sunday 14 August (1pm start) at Flixton Conservative Club.

Based on the experience of the Wednesday event, this will also be 15-up - otherwise we could have a late finish.

The entrants are:

Geoff Leck, Shaun Leck
Peter March, Martin Stevenson
Warwick Marsland, Sue Saunders

Flixton Cricket:
Nick Campling, Andy Southall

Direct entry user names

Clubs that play on both Mondays and Wednesdays were issued with two user names, and corresponding passwords. You can now use either user name (with its corresponding password) for matches on either night.

Player Registration

The rules agreed (in something of a rush) at the start of the season say that players must be registered seven days before playing. Clubs are still struggling to find players, and with Covid, and there is a steady stream of new registrations.

The purpose of prior registration is to allow direct entry to work, but we don't really need seven days for that. I have decided to relax the rule: players must now be registered by the day before the match.

Wednesday night Division 2 fixtures

The fixtures as published do not allow for the fact that Bowling green and Chorlton share a green. To fix this, we need to swop Chorlton and Oughtrington throughout the fixtures.

Clubs will be notified individually of the effects for them.

The rearranged matches are now shown on the web site fixtures.

Floodlights

Two greens report problems with their floodlights. Matches at these venues should start at 6.30pm in April (especially Monday matches; we can be a bit more relaxed towards the end of April on Wednesdays).
