‘The atmosphere was fantastic, the children were engaged and improved with each round showing a natural development of the sport’ said Ben Thambipillai, Assistant Manager.
‘Whilst having fun it was amazing to see the support the children were giving each other with hints, tips and positioning when bowling the ball, their attitude and behaviour were a credit to their schools’ said Nicki Grimison, Facility Manager.
