20th St Peter South Elmham Boules Championship 2025 Sunday 20th July 2025 at Ilketshall St Andrew Village Hall Proceeds in aid of St Peter’s Church

Entries

It is time once again to look forward to the summer and the annual Boules tournament raising funds for St Peter South Elmham Church.

This year we will again be playing at nearby Ilketshall St Andrew Village Hall. http://www.ilketshallstandrew.com/  It has an attractive open outlook over common land near the local church. This is a modern village hall with all facilities including a well-stocked and reasonably priced bar. As well as ample car parking there is a purpose built outdoor play area for younger children. The boules will be played on a loose cinder surface.

 

This year’s tournament will take place on Sunday 20th July. It is open to all ages and all abilities are welcome. You don't even need to know the rules!  All you need is a team of four to play.  The event lasts all day with games played in leagues in the morning and in the afternoon teams play a knockout competition. The best teams play for the cup and the not so lucky teams play for the plate, so you will all get plenty of games.

 

We are again accepting bank transfer payments this year. Please ask for details.

 

Tea, coffee and bacon rolls will be available from the start There will also be stalls selling cake and burgers. The bar in the village hall will be open from late morning serving various liquid refreshments. There will also be a raffle. The event is a great day out for family and friends.

 

I have attached the entry form in a couple of formats so hopefully one will work for you. If you would like to enter please fill out the entry form and return to Pamela at the address shown on the entry form with remittance or email to me and pay by BACS. If you would like to find out more please contact Tim Maycock. There will be no entries on the day.
