Greenkeepers Breakfast

Our wonderful Greenkeeping Team enjoyed a well-deserved celebratory breakfast to mark the end of another very successful season. Our Green continues to be considered one of the very best in the County. This is due to the hours of hard work and commitment our Greenkeepers devote to our club.

Tennis Club Friendly Match

On Sunday 25 August 2024 Pewsey Vale Bowls Club played hosts to a friendly bowls match with our recreation ground neighbours Pewsey Tennis Club. Each of the twelve teams included both tennis and bowls club members. It was a great afternoon of fun, laughter and some amazing play by our Tennis Club friends. The result was a very honourable drawn match between the tennis and bowls clubs. More importantly, friendships between the two clubs were further strengthened and funds were raised to support Prospect Hospice in Wroughton.

Good turnout of both Bowlers and Tennis Players
