From the Matt – February 21, 2019

THE Torquay Bowls Club has had a few BIG changes over the past few weeks bringing a new and exciting vibe to the club. Phil Girvan has retired as manager after five years of wonderful service.

Everyone at the club would like to wish him all the very best in his retirement.

We would like to welcome Peter Temple to the Torquay Bowls Club family as the club’s new General Manager, Peter comes to the club with 20 years of experience in the hospitality industry behind him. You can expect to see a few changes in the near future with plans in place to introduce changes to our bistro menu along with an updated bowlers’ menu and a variety of entertainment.

We wish Peter all the very best in his new position.
