indoor bowls club

The club meets on a Tuesday at Chamberlin Hall at 7.15 pm for practice nights and also our home games in the league. There is no age barrier as we have players starting at 13 and players who are in the 80's so it is open to all. This year we will be playing in both the winter league and the summer league. If anyone is interested in learning more they can contact Paul Cousins on 01449 744360.

The new season starts on Tuesday September the 13th with a roll up and anybody interested in playing can come along and give it a try. Members are charged £2 a night when playing at home which includes bowling and refreshments.

The club plays in the division two West during the winter and also plays cup matches and friendlies. Away matches are played on the home teams club night.

.On Saturday 19th of February 20 teams took part in a charity bowls match divided into 4 groups of 5 in a round robin qualifier. The winners of each group then played a semi final with the eventual winners being Washbrook & Copdock with Cockfield the runners up.

With the help of a grand draw, tombola and the hard work of the ladies in the kitchen who provided refreshments and a ploughman's lunch the club was able to donate £615 to the stroke unit at Ipswich hospital. Thank you to all those who supported the event or donated prizes.
