Odiham & North Warnborough Bowling Club

About

Bowls is a sport for all age groups, both sexes, able and disabled. People who have never played sport before can often quickly learn to play and enjoy the game. It truly is a sport for all, where men and women can compete on equal terms, so feel free to bring your family and friends.

It is easy to have a go, just turn up to the Club with a pair of flat shoes or trainers and they will organise the rest. The club has a range of bowls in different sizes, from junior bowls for young children to the largest sized bowls for adults. If you wish to come along just to watch in the first instance and perhaps discuss what is involved you are very welcome.

Membership is open to persons in the Parish of Odiham (which includes the wards of Odiham and North Warnborough) and the surrounding district.

Social Activities: The Club arranges a range of social activities mostly during the winter months typically including for example race/quiz/games nights, skittles, trips. Each year the Club holds a Presentation Dinner at which prizes for the season's competitions are presented to the winners along with musical or other entertainment

About Odiham & North Warnborough Bowling Club

Odiham & North Warnborough Bowling Club is a small friendly club. They have a full size 6 rink bowling green and a purpose brick-built pavilion housing a clubroom, bar, kitchen and changing room.

During the summer season (May to September) they compete in three leagues: the Aldershot & District on Tuesday evenings, the Farnham & District on Wednesday evenings, and the Basingstoke "Stan Hardman" League on Thursday afternoons. At the weekends, they have a full fixture of friendly matches arranged with other bowling clubs, and hold internal club competitions and events.

In the winter season (October to April) they play "short mat" bowls and have two mats which are laid out in the clubhouse. They run an internal league on Monday evenings and compete in a local league with other clubs on a Thursday afternoon. In addition, friendly matches are arranged, roughly every four weeks, at weekends.

Throughout the year "roll-ups" are held on Tuesday and Friday afternoons, commencing at 14.00, where members get together in a relaxed atmosphere to practice their skill. Prospective new members are welcome to come along to any of these sessions as they provide an excellent opportunity to learn the game and get to know the club members
