A Guide To Bowls
New to bowls and not sure where to start?
Come down and give it a try!
Many people having seen bowls competitions on TV, or maybe having stopped to watch a game in progress in their local park have at some time thought, “I wouldn’t mind giving that a try”, so why not do it!
Probably the number one reason you haven’t tried bowls yet is that it is considered by those not involved in the game to be a sport for the older folk. Bowls is a great pastime for many older people, but it is also a great sport for all, including the younger generation.
The under 25 scene is flourishing both at County, National and International level, but for those of you just that bit older, it is a terrific way to keep fit and keep your competitive spirit going when your more active days in cricket, football or tennis are coming to an end.
If you would like to come along to the Club and have a look, please feel free at any time. You’ll find the club in use most evenings and weekends during the playing season. There is plenty of seating around the green for spectators - after all, what could be more relaxing on a warm summer’s afternoon or evening than watching a game of bowls with a glass or wine or beer?
We also host Kent County representative and Association games. Remember, visitors are welcome. If you would like to have some free lessons or become a member, just pick up a membership application form, or have a word with any club member.
