Some top quality tennis is on offer locally this weekend. Finals of 2014 West of Scotland Open Champs will be played at Giffnock Tennis Club on Sat 16th Aug.

Clarkston's Contribution to Commonwealth Games 2014!

Many members will be aware the Malaysian bowlers spent some time at CBTC in preparation for their challenge in the 2014 Games. Perhaps the friendly match with our very own CBTC bowlers and their training sessions here at the club gave them them a wee bit of an edge over some of their opposition! 

We would like to congratulate all the athletes who participated and in particular the Malaysian Ladies Team who won Silver at the Games! Here are the medallists in the city recently sharing their delight with club chairman Mark Weir.

Clarkston would also like to congratulate Ali and Chico, two of our top bowlers who made their debut as international athletes at the games, representing Pakistan. 

Although the boys did not manage to secure a medal, there is no doubt that they gave their best efforts. They justified their place in the team and made Pakistan, Scotland and Clarkston Bowling and Tennis Club very proud. Well done!

Maylasia Comes to Clarkston!

A fantastic afternoon of bowling was on display at the club this afternoon. Passers by could have been forgiven for assuming the 2014 Games was underway but what they were witnessing was the Malaysian Games squad playing our own CBTC bowlers in a friendly warm up for the Games itself.

Tennis Ladies

Congratulations to Clarkston Ladies 3rds who won 9 /10 matches and will be promoted as winners of Division 3A.

They will be playing off on 2nd September. Division 4B is almost complete with 1 match to play but Clarkston Ladies 4th are safe.
