I got the go-ahead to extend the terrain, around 1½ metres... may not sound much but it will enable us to play three games instead of two. It works out at 2.55 metres per piste, a little narrow but I have played on much skinnier lanes than this and survived.
Sharp sand is to be kindly donated by Mervyn Lambert. He has also offered to deliver it for us... yay! Darren is going to bring along some reflectors for the timber surrounds, so that it will clearly be visible for vehicles and will look high tech... many thanks to you both.
I have marked out positions of scoreboards, one metre markers (along the length) and reflectors.
Update - all done now,
this is how it turned out...

| Now enough room for three games |
After the success of playing shorter matches at the 'Festival of Boules 2012' we have decided to play the same format on club days. This means we play '6 ends' instead of the usual 'first to 13 points'. Games finish more or less at the same time and it means we have more changeovers.

All looking good the terrain play's well all we need now is that lighting ? .And a bit of cover when it rains + a few more player's to make up a few more teams? Darren
