NEW CHAIRPERSON
The Board of DBE have pleasure in announcing the appointment of a new Chairperson, Steve Watson…
A message from our new Chairperson Steve Watson.
I am very honoured and proud to be the new Chairperson for Disability Bowls England Charity Trust. I am looking forward to working together with the board of DBE during these difficult times and also to meeting everyone again when safe to do so.
As we promote and move DBE in the right direction as the organisation continues to grow at pace, we will all need to be creative in our thinking as we adapt to new ways to steady the ship for “Our New World” after lockdown.
I would like to thank Paul Brown who for the past 6 years, has been the driving force behind DBE, showcasing it to a much wider world audience and has set very high standards for me to follow and maintain.
Lawn Bowls is truly “A Sport for All”
Steve Watson.

DBE Unclassified singles – January 5th 2020 Gedling IBC
Due to illness, several bowlers had to withdraw from the competition which would usually be run on a knockout basis it was decided to form 2 groups, play a round robin with a final. This guaranteed each bowler plenty of bowling during the day.
Green Group
Khalila Hussain, Colin Wagstaff, David Masterman, Georgia Tucker and Claire Domville.
Winner after round robin was Claire Domville.
Yellow Group
Harry Atkin, Amy Brookes, Rhys Taylor , Daniel Adams, Ray Kirk and Chris Gray.
Winner after round robin Daniel Adams.
On the 7th end of the final Claire was 10 – 3 up, by the 11th end it was 10 all then Daniel got into his stride and forged ahead to win 21 – 10.
During the day our classification team classified two of our new members which now means they can compete in the classified singles in the future.
All in all, it was a good day and enjoyed by all.
The medals and trophy were presented to the winners by Gedling IBC President Mal Frost.
Maggy Smith, DBE Competition Secretary thanked the markers and helpers and wished everyone a ‘Happy and healthy New Year’ and safe journey home.
