By Arthur Allan, Bradley Stoke Bowls Club.
Working on the assumption that the government’s roadmap out of the coronavirus lockdown will be achieved, Bowls England is consulting with the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport on the guidelines for resuming bowls.
If everything goes to plan, we already know that, from 21st June, all restrictions will end in the UK, so hopefully bowls would be able to resume as normal after that date.
The question is what restrictions will be in place for outdoor bowling from 29th March up to 21st June?
The club has already arranged a full season of fixtures in the hope that bowling could resume as normal or in a Covid-safe way from around mid-April.
