Coronavirus: Stamford Indoor Bowls Club players advised to stop shaking hands or giving 'high fives' at matches

Bowls players are being advised to stop shaking hands and ‘high fiving’ at matches to help prevent the spread of coronavirus and other infections.

The management at Stamford Indoor Club believes ending unnecessary contact is a positive reaction to concerns about the flu-like infection.

The club issued the notices while offering advice to members that they should wash their hands regularly and take advantage of the hand sanitisers that have been provided around the premises.
