SALTCOATS Bowling Club reopened at the weekend, to the delight of members.

Much of the season last year was lost due to the coronavirus pandemic and the resulting restrictions during lockdown. But now the members are looking forward to the return of the sport - and hopefully a full season on the greens ahead of them.

Our picture shows President Jim Conn, Lady President Trish McCall, secretary Michael Grant and treasurer Frank Miller as the first jack is thrown.

Best wishes from all at the Herald for a cracking season to come for the Saltcoats club.
