Finals Day Weekend
We had a wonderful weekend with the finals of the club competitions taking place on Saturday and Sunday. All the games were played in great spirit and the atmosphere was fantastic.
We finished the weekend with a BBQ and some celebration drinking which went down well.
JP organised the club competitions and he did a brilliant job in pulling it altogether. We are now looking forward to the 2026 season when we have some exciting events planned to celebrate our Centenary year, Sue Judge

Griffin Cup 2025
The Watford & District Bowling Association would very much like to express our
gratitude to the Members of Croxley Guild Bowls Club for hosting the Griffin Cup Semi Finals
and Final day for 2025.
The occasion was very much enjoyed by all, with the supply of a superb green for the bowlers to appreciate, which led to some great bowls being displayed by some of the best players in the County.
The whole execution of hosting the day was brilliantly performed with so many of your members
rolling up their sleeves to help out and keep the visiting teams well lubricated and fed throughout the day

Saturday 22nd February 2025
We played Herts Bowling Club last Saturday and we put a good fight up,
after a poor start to the match.
We lost by just 18 shots which was a great achievement considering 75% of Croxley players do not play bowls indoors.
On 3 of our rinks we started poorly with heavy loses but then the tide turned and all 3 teams caught up and eventually won.
A good result for Croxley Guild

We have vibrant and enthusiastic Short Mat sessions, In the club house during the Winter months
On Friday 31st of January 2025, we held a tournament for every session to play a competitive game.
There was an amazing turnabout, 10 triples teams took part.
It turned into a fantastic day of fun and laughter just the thing to brighten a dull January. It was a close contest with Marion, Hazel and Maggie as the winners, Sue, Jane and Val as runners up, and coming in a close third William, Angie and Rosey.
Short Mat is such a fun way to spend a couple of hours and I am sure everyone who took part really enjoyed it.
