Chardstock Bowling Club

Bowls is not expensive. To get going you don't need a lot of new kit. 

​

For newcomers, the dress code is relaxed and whatever makes you feel comfortable. 

​

To help keep the playing surface in good condition, it's important to wear a pair of flat soled shoes/trainers.

​

When you start playing in friendly matches, initially you should wear a white sports shirt, and grey or white trousers/shorts/cropped trousers. 

 

The dress code for league matches will be explained in your coaching sessions. We wear club polo shirts, which you can purchase from the club. 

​

A set of 4 bowls will be available for the coaching sessions. Members usually purchase their own second hand set of 4 bowls when they decide to play in friendly or league matches. This will enable you to get used to the size, weight and draw for a couple of seasons before you decide if you want to invest in a set of brand new set of bowls which is suited to you.
