Membership

We welcome both playing and non-playing (social) members of all ages. The Club consists of separate sections for Lady and Men members. Social members are entitled to enjoy all the facilities of the Club except for full use of the green. We currently have around 140 members. A Management Committee, in accordance with the Constitution and General Rules, undertakes management of the Club.

The Green

Facilities 

Our six-rink green is currently one of the best in the area, and our clubhouse and bar offers a friendly welcome and excellent facilities for bowling and social members.

The Green opens daily from 11.00am to dusk from the end of April until late September. Changing rooms are located next to the green and there are separate facilities for Gentlemen and Ladies. Within the changing rooms lockers are available to members on application to the Secretary. Notice boards in the clubhouse carry details of competition draws, team selection notices and any other information that may be of interest to members.

Our clubhouse and bar is open to members throughout the season, and our social committee organises occasional nights of live entertainment and other fun nights.
