Roving Rob!

The League’s minutes secretary Rob Burroughs is going to be even busier on the bowls scene next year.

Already a driving force of the Premier League, as well as many other things, he has now taken on the running of the Shropshire’s sole Champion of Champions qualifying competition – the Meole Brace Open.

Not content with that, Rob has combined that new role with launching a new open competition at Telford club Hadley USC – where he is the new secretary!

“I have taken over the running of the Meole Open in Shrewsbury,” confirmed Wellington-based Burroughs.

“I’m also running another competition on the same weekends at Hadley as, having lost the competitions at Cradley, ECC and St Georges, I feel there is a gap for players who could come down and play in two competitions, especially those that come a long way.

“So I’m hoping that will encourage more people to come and enter both!”

Rob is also secretary of the Summit Garage Midland Super League, an officer of the Shropshire as well as an organiser of the Arthur Land British Super Cup.

Hadley Open details – £3,200 prize money with qualifiers on Saturday-Sunday, March 18-19 & 25-26 (2.30pm & 6.30pm sessions). Finals day on Saturday, April 1, with 10.30am start and £700 to winner.

No home bowlers, entry fee is £20, limited to first 128 entries. Entries via text (07901 229623), Email ([email protected]), Whats App or Facebook Messenger to Robert Burroughs
