Richings Park Bowls Club
Always a warm welcome from the club members
Welcome from the Club Captain
Welcome to the Richings Park Bowls Club web site. We are a small, friendly club located within the grounds of the Richings Park Sports Club. Please see our contact page for contact details and location.
If you are looking for some gentle exercise in a friendly atmosphere, then Lawn Bowls is the sport for you, and Richings Park Bowls Club is the place to be.
Lawn Bowls is an easy game to learn how to play, but a little more difficult one to master. The longer you play, the more you pick up the finer points of the game and the better you become. We are keen to welcome new members of all abilities, male or female, with experience of the game, or as a complete newcomer, free coaching available.
For anyone interested in trying the sport for the first time, please contact any of our Committee Members or drop into the green when we are playing. We will be delighted to talk with you about our great sport, provide you with guidance on how to play and arrange a taster session for you. You can also take the opportunity to look at the sports and social events facilities on offer. Bowls is a game for the young and not so young alike; all you need to start playing is a flat pair of shoes or trainers.
We play a large number of weekend and mid-week friendly matches with other local clubs, and teams are also entered in the Thames Valley League and Ad-Fin; with a number of our members also participating in County and National Competitions.
For more information about this amazing game, or just to find out a bit more about the sport and the Club, please contact any of our Committee Members.
