CLUB HOUSE AND BOWLING GREEN CLUB BADGE |
|
Founded in 1981 we are enjoying our 28th season in the Sussex bowling fraternity. Our present membership is 35 Ladies and 49 Gentlemen and is near the average level over the 27 years of our existence. This season we welcome our youngest ever member Thomas, and his Dad Michael. We need more younger members like these two for the good of the Club and the Sport of Bowling. We are affiliated to the Sussex County Bowling Association www.sussexba.co.uk and through them to the English Bowling Association www.bowlsengland.com. 45% of our members are now on email!
The pavilion was erected in 1986 and sports excellent facilities including a bar, fitted kitchen and spacious changing rooms. Additions and renovations completed in April 2006 have made this pavilion one of the best in the county. The weather has finally disposed of our storage shed and so a replacement has had to be purchased. This is now in place and ready for the new season, thanks to Reg Littlewood and his team of workers.
We are constantly seeking new members, from all sections of the community. All ages and all ability levels will be made welcome. Bowling is as much a social activity as a sporting one and to enforce this aspect there are several social functions arranged every year, from coffee mornings to quiz’s, from dances to fish and chip suppers. During the last closed season our Social Team of Norma and Don Pattenden with George and Jean Newton organised Club social evenings on Wednesdays which proved quite popular and raised much needed revenue for the Club.
Touring sides from all over the country visit us during the summer. We welcome them most warmly and can help arrange accommodation in Brighton and/or Eastbourne if necessary.
On the bowling side we have two teams in the Brighton and Hove District League, ( http://freespace.virgin.net/league.bhdbowls/ ), (men only), now in Division 1 and Division 6, and two in the Newhaven Evening League, (Ladies welcome), so there is plenty of opportunity for competitive bowling. Our Brighton and Hove League ‘A’ team are to be congratulated on winning promotion to the top division for the first time in the Club’s history.
For winter bowling we are fortunate to be within a couple of miles of Denton Island Indoor Bowling Club ( www.DIIBC.freeserve.co.uk ) where the facilities are unrivalled.
All suggestions to improve or add to this site will be welcomed. Contact leachf@toucansurf.com for further information of any kind.

IF YOU’RE THINKING OF REPLACING OR UPGRADING YOUR HOME ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEMS (YER TELLY) TO THE LATEST AND BEST THEN TAKE A LOOK AT THE ABOVE SITE. YOU WON’T FIND BETTER PRICES ANYWHERE. IF YOU NEED HELP OR INFORMATION GIVE ME A CALL. ALL FREE TO MEMBERS PLUS ANY INSTALLATION YOU MAY NEED. AND IT WILL RAISE FUNDS FOR THE CLUB. PERSONALLY I LIKE THE SPECIFICATION OF THE NEW TOSHIBA 40ZF. ITS GOT EVERYTHING YOU’RE GOING TO NEED FOR THE NEXT TWENTY YEARS AND IT LOOKS FANTASTIC AS WELL. Update 21st May, my new kit has now arrived and is installed and working. Just as good as I had hoped. It took three days from order to delivery! Wimbledon looks great as does the Footy. Needs to be seen to be believed. leachf@toucansurf.com |
