We are a friendly club and new members are always welcome. Our clubhouse has changing facilities and a bar.  We have a full social programme each Thursday evening in the closed season during the winter months.  If you wish to find out more, or have a go, we offer taster sessions on Sunday mornings from 11am, and from 5pm on Thursday evenings in the summer season.  We have a small collection of spare bowls you can try.

​

We have roll-ups on Monday and Friday afternoons.  We also have a roll-up on Thursday evenings with start times at 5.30pm and 6.15pm prior to Club Night at 7.30pm. 

​

Local community:  The bowling club interacts with the local community on a number of levels:  rinks are made available to the U3A each Thursday and members of the public are invited to have a go every Sunday morning and Thursday evening during the bowling season with free equipment and coaching from accredited coaches.

Anyone can become a social member of the club and join in the weekly social evenings, especially active during the winter months.  The clubhouse is available to hire and is used by a lace making group and beginners bridge group on a weekly basis.  In addition the bowling club is a leading member of the Sutherland Memorial Park Amenities Club (SMPAC) which leases the Memorial Hall which is on the same site, from the local council.  The hall is available for hire to anyone from the local community.  It currently hosts a nursery each weekday.  Other regular hirers also include brownies, exercise classes, a bridge club, football clubs, the Burpham Community Association and there are many private one-off casual hirers.  The hall is managed by a management committee comprised of constituent member organisations of the SMPAC.   Currently bowling club representatives chair and occupy all of the officer posts of the SMPAC management committee.

​

Many of our members continue playing during the winter season at the Wey Valley Indoor Bowling Club in Guildford.
