Sale and Urmston league: Sale League: Urmston league: |
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. |
Rules Revision meetingThe minutes of the rules revision meeting held on 28 November are now available. There was one proposal: to reduce the team size on Mondays to eight, which was rejected. | |

TrophiesBoth the Sale and Urmston leagues had amassed a collection of trophies, more than they needed individually and certainly too many for the new association. There is a web page listing what we have. Some of them may have historical or sentimental interest, but to whom? Some may have significant value as bullion. Suggestions for the future use of these trophies are welcome. If anybody knows the whereabouts of yet more trophies, please contact the secretary. | |

FloodlightsTwo 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).
