Welcome to our website
Our club is made up of a very friendly, welcoming group of bowlers.
We’re always keen to welcome new members, whatever age or skill.
You don’t have to live in the Hemingfords; some members, attracted by the welcoming nature of our club and because we have one of the best facilities in the area, travel from their homes in surrounding towns and villages.
Membership is free this year for new to bowling members

OPEN AFTERNOON 21 APRIL 2024
The weather was kind to us as we held our annual open afternoon. We were absolutely ‘bowled over’ (!) to welcome so many prospective new members to the club. Everyone had a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon having a go at bowling, learning about the game and meeting club members who were on hand to give help and guidance. It was great hearing so many positive comments about ho friendly our club is and how welcoming everyone was. Want to have a go? Contact us through the addresses on the website.

16 members undertook first aid skills for life training on 16 April. The club is now well covered in case of incident. The session was led by Emma who was a superb course leader. Thank you Emma.
WELL DONE!
Peter and John recently scored a maximum 8 shots in a single end of an indoor league pairs match – a ‘Hot Shot’. All four of Peter’s and all four of John’s bowls counted and were closer to the jack than any of their opponents bowls in that single end!
It’s an award that the magazine ‘Bowls International’ give for this ‘rare’ achievement.
The photo should appear in the June issue of Bowls International.
The Cock House Cup 2024
The green was perfect and so was the weather for the start of the new season on 14 April 2024. 26 members played in the annual Cockhouse Cup ladies v men match with the men just securing the victory.
An afternoon of fun, friendship, camaraderie and bowls followed by superb refreshments and a drink.
Pre-Season tasks are well underway and the green is looking fantastic! Thank you to everyone who gives their time voluntarily to ensure that our green is ready for the new season and that it is maintained to such a high standard throughout the season. .
