The NCSMBA is saddened to learn of the death of Richard Broad of Connaught and the Norfolk Over 60s. Richard was one of the great characters of short mat bowls whose dry wit delighted many and whose love of playing our sport was obvious to all who knew him. Just last Thursday Richard played for Norfolk Over 60’s in their away match against Cambs Seniors. He joined most of the team at Arbuckles Restaurant to enjoy a meal on the way home from the match where he was, as always, at his most humourous best. Richard died suddenly on Monday afternoon at one of the places he loved to be at most, Potters Resort in Hopton-on-Sea. He will be missed by so many people in the sport. We send our sincere condolences to his wife and family.
