New Bowls Trophy Presented

Members of Wollerton Bowls & Social Club gathered on Saturday 13 September, 2014 to watch the presentation of a new trophy at the club’s green in Mill Road. The Reg Frost Memorial Trophy was presented by Nigel and Mark Frost in honour of their father who died earlier this year. The first winner of the trophy was Mrs. Lesley Jones.

Reg had been involved in Wollerton Club for over a decade and both he and Sylvia have been hard working members. Reg was often to be found at the club helping  out with maintenance work to both the grounds and the buildings. Before the start of this season he had been very involved in dismantling an old wooden shelter and replacing it with a larger metal extension to the existing one.
It was a great shock to all members of the club when Reg collapsed on the green on 2nd April during the first match of the season in the Market Drayton Seniors Bowling League. Reg had suffered a heart attack and died shortly afterwards. He is greatly missed by members of his family and members of the club.
The Reg Frost Memorial Trophy will now take pride of place amongst the club’s annual in-house competitions.
