A sad day for our bowling fraternity. After a special meeting on 22nd April 2019 due to a shortage of members at Llanwern Bowls Club, it was voted by members present that they have decided to fold.
The following was released by Club Secretary, Robert Davis
It is with great sadness and regret I have to inform the Newport and Monmouthshire bowls associations that Llanwern Bowls Club are having to fold . We have tried everything to attract new members but due to lack of members and long term illness of some of our current members we can not raise a team to complete our fixtures . We did try to borrow players from other teams that have a large membership but was not successful.
Regards
Robert Davis
Secretary of Llanwern Bowls Club
