Coaching available for all levels
Coaching is available throughout the season, please ask at the club for details.
Short Mat
Over the Winter season running from the beginning of October to the end of March the club hosts short mat in our Main Hall. We have 3 mats and run sessions on a Monday and Wednesday afternoon from 2pm – 4pm and on Friday evening, which is club night from 7pm (registration is 20mins before each session).
Short Mat is available for our full members, having paid a joining fee, with a small charge per game, which includes tea and biscuits.
Friendly matches are arranged with other local short mat clubs.
It’s a really fun way to keep bowling over the winter, in a friendly, low competitive environment.
Club Competitions
Members are encouraged to enter the internal club competitions. These are overseen by a Competition Committee.
Competitions can be entered on and after the renewals day in February, until the end of March. The competitions are drawn on a Friday evening in April.
Competitions are available in Ladies, Mens and Mixed categories.
