Decision on extra funding for leisure centres and Serco
Posted in Local government, Services, Sport on Thursday August 13, 2020| Leave a Comment »
District councillors agreed last night (12 August) to provide extra funding to Freedom Leisure to enable the reopening of Derbyshire Dales leisure centres in Ashbourne, Matlock and Wirksworth with reduced hours and new Covid safety measures. View the meeting again on our YouTube channel. The actual reopening date and operating hours will be announced by Freedom Leisure after a period of mobilisation.
A fourth leisure facility operated on behalf of the council by Freedom – Bakewell Swimming Pool – will remain closed for a further two months after councillors heard that the small size of the facility made current social distancing requirements unworkable.
At the same meeting, councillors agreed to provide financial support to Serco to help the implementation of a new waste & recycling contract. The costs of the unavoidable impact of delays to the delivery of new refuse collection vehicles – associated with manufacturer shutdowns during Covid-19 – are being shared with Serco. Read more >>

Christmas Day Football
Posted in British Legion, Events, Football, Sport on Thursday December 19, 2019| Leave a Comment »
Just one more week to go!! …. Until the most fun you will ever have on a football pitch…..!!
This year will be our 4th Christmas Day football in Parwich (Nethergreen field, not the Cricket Pitch).
This event is always well attended, we like to see young and old, good ability and no ability, everyone is welcome, the more the merrier. Drag your kids along.
Afterwards some of us head to the legion for a pint or two
I expect this year will be one of the best ever and it will definitely be very muddy!!
Note: This is not an official event,… its just a bunch crazy locals having great fun before our Christmas lunch.. There is no Insurance, or first aid provided and everyone plays at their own risk. That said, we have never had any major injuries and we hope to see you there!!

Friday Football now Sunday Football
Posted in Sport on Friday September 6, 2019| Leave a Comment »
Time to start your Sunday early. We have changed the children’s football from Friday to Sunday morning.
This change has come about from our work demands, but should also allow us to play on grass for longer, which is far safer.
We will start at 9am and finish around 10am giving you the rest of the day to enjoy the remainder of your weekend.
We hope this change of time will be successful and are looking forward to seeing the children there this weekend!
Reminder that young children should be accompanied by parents, we are always looking for parent helpers, parents should familiarise themselves with our rules.
Thanks
Jason, James & Charles.
Nearly the end of the Season

Parwich Bowls Club Report
Tuesday, lovely evening, great company, green in superb condition and I don’t mean at Parwich as we were away at Chatsworth – well the green is in Edensor really. The only downside was that I discovered too late that chips were in offer in the Cavendish club. No matter, the result was what counted, we won by 81 points (maximum possible 84) to 57. A good win indeed. Only 1 game left in this League next Tuesday at home to Matlock Bath. We should finish in the perfect position, 5th or 6th I guess so no promotion this year.
Thursday afternoon was a different story. We were again 3 players short of a full team meaning that 3 of us had to play twice. Now you might think that this could be an advantage as those who played again should know how the green is performing. Against fellow strugglers Bradwell A, however, it was not the case, Bradwell played very well to win the match 132-117, our captain for the day, Fran, having our best score. Both clubs will be playing in Division 2 next year as we are propping up Division 1 with Bradwell just one place above us. Two games left in this League and whatever the results we will not be able to avoid relegation.
