Adnams Suffolk Coastal League 2017

Les and I attended the ASCL meeting last Friday at the Riverside Centre near Saxmundham.

Diss Duval will join Shotford Bowls Club, Fressingfield Poachers, Mendham and Huntingsfield in the group stage.  Both Shotford and Poachers will ground share at Fressingfield.  Some of these teams are new to the sport and won't understand the rules fully, so may need guidance from more experienced players (like ourselves) along the way.  In the KO tournament, Diss will entertain Bromeswell Boules Club.  

Leisure boules and resin cochonnet are both allowed.  Yellow/red cards will not be adopted. Out of bounds rule may be different depending on where you play (some new terrains won't have string). Best to check this before the start of the game.  If the pistes are narrow, the jack may still be valid if less than a metre from the dead ball line or wooden surround - again check with their captain.

Most teams provide refreshments after the match but it is not mandatory. However, I suggest that we do.
