Formed in 1954, the club started off with only three rinks next to an area that can only be described as wasteland, then in the late eighties the green was able to be extended to six rinks. Later, with the aid of a lottery grant a new clubhouse was built, but there was still the ongoing problem to be solved - the green that nobody wanted to come and play on. The committee decided that it was time for action and called in a well known, highly respected green keeper, under whose guidance we have transformed the green to one that everyone now wants to play on.
Today the Club is rightly proud of our green, which is comparable to any of those that play in
the Stamford District or the Peterborough District leagues and other
surrounding areas. The improvement is best exampled by quoting the President of the Northants Bowling Federation, who in a letter to the Club wrote "I just want to say how much the team I captain enjoyed playing on your refurbished green. Congratulations, it was a revelation".
The Club is affiliated to the Northants Bowling
Federation and have two teams playing in the Stamford & District Bowls
League and four playing in the Peterborough & District Bowls League.
Newcomers, or those who already bowl and may
wish to join us, are invited to come along to our regular informal 'Roll-up' on
a Thursday evening (May to August) from 6.30pm to 8.30 pm where, if needed, basic
tuition and bowls can be provided.
Throughout the year we also organise various fund
raising activities such aa a race night and quiz night, along with other social events. Internal bowling competitions are a feature of the club year.
