Bar staff wanted

Hi Guys – Please pass onto your members – Dave Smith ..

We have some vacancies for weekend bar staff, and work is available now.

We are offering a competitive rate of from £8.50 per hour, according to age, for casual part-time staff to join our young and friendly team behind the bar.

The bar is open on some weekday evenings during the winter and all week during the summer. It is open from midday on Saturdays and Sundays all through the year. We also take bookings for birthday and anniversary parties in our large function room. These are usually on Saturday evenings when extra shifts are required. These occasions can be extremely busy. Staff are expected to commit to regular Saturday and or Sunday afternoon or evening shifts and occasional Friday shifts, midweek shifts are more likely in the summer months. Applicants must show willingness to be available when extra staff are required for large functions and to cover for colleagues.

We welcome applications from both experienced bar staff and those willing to develop a new skill. Training will be provided. Candidates must be 18 or over. They will need to demonstrate high standards of integrity and reliability, accurate operation of our EPOS till system, good interpersonal skills, and cheerfulness under pressure. A confident and friendly manner is essential.

The bar serves real ales, lagers, draught cider, and a wide range of bottled beers, wines and spirits including a selection of gins. We are a friendly and lively club with a bar serving the needs of a predominantly younger membership of cricketers and their families.

We are located 100 meters from the 216 bus stop.

You are invited to circulate this email to friends and family.

Applications with a CV attached (including date of birth) should be addressed to the Bar Management Team at sunburysports@outlook.com

A sad start to the year

 

We sadly report the death of Terry Aslett who passed away shortly after Christmas. He missed playing bowls over the last two years due to illness and will be fondly remembered for his enthusiasm and commitment to Sunbury Bowls.

His son has informed us that the funeral is planned for Thursday 20th January with a service at Hanworth Crematorium at 3:50pm, followed by refreshments at Little Italy, Thames Street – one of his regular haunts.

RIP Terry.

New Year Quiz – 11Jan

 

Our first social of the year is on 11th January at 7:30pm – Quiz Night!

 

All are welcome including family and friends but please do a lateral flow test, where possible, beforehand.

 

For those of you missing out on bowls, the BBC will be televising the World Indoor Bowls Championships from 7-23Jan. It’ll also be streamed live on YouTube.

A new patio for the New Year

Some news on a new patio being built on the cricket-pitch side of the club ..
Hi all
The NEW PATIO which goes from the front of the Squash/Weights entrance to the corner of the building starts on Monday 20th Dec.
We will ask the contractor to make sure there is a safe path to the front entrance for Weights & Squash.
Re:Bowls, as the work is on the field side of the club it wont really affect the bowls entrance to green or clubhouse, but please advise your members about it happening and to be aware and careful.
Thanks
Dave, Sunbury Cricket

Trophies & prizes 2021

This year’s annual Presentation Luncheon went well with a full complement of trophies presented and even more raffle prizes won! Thanks to all for the arrangements and help on the day. We missed our Club President, Tom, but perhaps not his jokes! We wish him well.

All this year’s winners have had their name(s) added to the trophies (with one exception, oops!) as well as those from the reduced programme we ran in 2020. The Honours Boards have also been updated and will be available for viewing, perhaps in the main hall, in the coming months.

This year’s Club Trophy was awarded to John Nutt for his sterling work on the garden and overall help and support around the club and green.

The Monday Evening league was won by The Firers – Richard Moxon, Barry Frankson, Tony Latchford and Karen & Alan Pilkington,

The Friday Triples league was won by The Swifts – Brian McKone, Bob Levi, Alison Nabil and Eileen & Roger Leatherby.

Our next event is the Xmas social on Tuesday 7th December at 7:30pm – a mix of games and quiz .. all are welcome .. members, friends & family.
