GLEN RICHARDS

CLARENDON BOWLING CLUB | LAWN BOWLS

As a builder, Glen built the Clarendon Bowls Club in the 1960s. Since then, he’s held most committee positions, including President. A life member, Glen is always the first to volunteer. He’s been the Night Owls Competition cook for many years and is, of course, an avid Coopers drinker (Pale Ale). A thorough gentleman, Glen sadly lost his wife and best mate, Shirley, last year.

    Definitely a legend – is the heart and soul of Clarendon. If I had a dollar for every Coopers he has drank I would be a millionaire.

    Glen Richards and his wife Shirley have also built the stone wall down the main street of Clarendon, top bloke! Worthy contender.

    What a great bloke – even when he’s grumpy. And always willing to help out which he did week after week during the last ladies pennant season (2010/11) – he played lead in my team all season and we ended up winning a pennant. Didn’t that put a smile on his face!! Good luck Glen.

    Hi Poppy, I’m surprised it has taken this long for everyone to pick up on how much of a legend you truly are – something we have known forever. Have a Coopers for us and enjoy!!

    Whenever I hear Coopers I think of you Poppy and that time the chicken stuffing fell in your beer. Love from Kirsten.
