The sun was shining on Vivary Park on Saturday (April 18) as Taunton Bowling Club held their grand opening for the summer season.

The club – also known as Taunton Vivary – was open for the first time this summer as players warmed up for the new season.

This year, players will be sporting the new maroon coloured outfits for their matches.

There were around 50 players at the Vivary Park bowling green who took part in a ‘roll up’ – which is an informal warm up where players can test their skills in non-competitive play.

This was followed by tea and refreshments enjoyed by everyone in attendance.

Taunton Bowling Club, based at Vivary Park, has three indoor rinks and an outdoor green and has been the location of county finals on several occasions.

The club welcomes touring teams as well.

An open day is being held at the club in May for people to go along and try it out for themselves. For more information, visit the club website www.tauntonbowlingclub.co.uk
