Arthur Newland RIP
Priory Bowls Club
It is with deep sadness that I have to inform the members of Priory B.C of the passing of Arthur Newland, one of our longest and staunch supporters of our club. Arthur was a member of our club for over 20 years and a former member of Southsea Falcon BC, and for most of that time was a successful skip in the first team and laterly in the Combination team that won Combination 1.
In 2002 Arthur won the Club Handicap Singles,in 2007 he won the Club Triples with his son in law Nigel Mundy & Terry Ferrett, in 2011 he was Club Champion, a year later he won the Triples again with Terry Ferrett & Ken Ankers and in 2016 Arthur was 2 Woods Champion.
Our thoughts and prayers are with his family, daughters Karen & Nigel, Tina & Steve and especially to his grandson Ashley.
Details of the funeral will be posted will follow.
No more umph needed now Arthur, Rest In Peace Skip
