Activities and Groups for Little Lever and Darcy Lever

Following the recent success of after school clubs with Leverhulme Primary and St Stephen's & All Martyrs we would like to extend the opportunity to all children, aged from 7 to 17 years, in the Bolton area to learn a sport that can be played by all regardless of physical ability.  We will offer fun games and exercises to improve all levels of bowlers.

If you are interested contact Graham by text or e-mail or just turn up on Saturday mornings.  A small charge of £1.50 will be charged to non members to cover the cost of a drink and biscuits following the sessions.  Parents are welcome and encouraged to come and watch.  Tea & coffee will be available from the kitchen.

The Club have four Level 2 coaches, supported by volunteers and Level 1 coaches, and we look forward to seeing you there.

There will be a break over the Christmas/New Year period.

The sessions include:  warm-up, mobility, pulse raisers, stretches, strengthening, cool-down, and anything else I can mix-in, and sometimes we sing as well.   So as well as keeping fit; making new friends; chats and socialising there is lots of laughter and all for FREE!!!                     Refreshments afterwards.
