I am 63 ,and have played crown green bowls for 40 of them !!
A few yrs ago my team Captain said he looked forward to me being old enough to play in his 'Seniors' team 60 onwards .
I felt very underwelmed and couldnt see that happening as playing twice a week in 2 leagues was enough for me !
Move forward to being 61 , I was having so much left hip trouble ,I was glad of a rest in the sun in the afternoon, in the 'old gits league ' mainly because I was struggling walking around .
There are lots of folk will tell you that at 60 things start to go wrong with you !! Ha ha . In my case its not far wrong !! Hip replacement later this yr hopefully !!
Enjoy life while you can -it aint a trial run ""
