The pavilion gained a beautiful weather vane in July this year. It was presented to the club by Clare and Paul Buxton in memory of Clare's dad Wilf Hartley. Wilf was a regular and very skilled bowler in the Shepley Veterans' 6-man team, with his prowess on the green helping the team to back-to-back Division 1 Championship titles in 2021 and 2022.

During the summer months we cannot fail to see and appreciate the huge amount of work that our green keeper Norman, and his assistant Paul, put into maintaining the green and that Mike puts into maintaining the surrounding grounds and croquet pitch. But in winter, when the green lies silent, resting and waiting for our return in April do they get a rest too?

Congratulations to our Mirfield & District League team who have finished the 2024 season at the top of Division 6. It was a closely fought battle against second placed Waterloo with overall points tied at 93 apiece and Shepley coming out on top by virtue of a better 'Average aggregate for' of 146.79 vs 145.93. It doesn't come much closer that that!
