Competitive Bowling
Club Competitions
During the winter months, members play in Pairs and Singles competitions starting in September. These follow a "round robin" format before moving into quarter, semi and final matches. This gives everyone a chance to have several games in the competitions. The winter Finals are held in April.
During the summer we hold many club competitions. These follow a "knock out" format. New bowlers are encouraged to enter as soon as they feel ready for competition. Our club Presentation Dinner Dance is held in November and all the trophies are awarded at this event.
