Welcome to our new website
The members at Silksworth Bowls Club would like to welcome you to our new website! We intend this to be the hub for what’s going on at the bowling green,
Our members are a friendly group who welcome all existing and prospective prospective. We have an active social scene, with plenty of informal and formal events on offer.
We have members of all ages and varying experience in the game – from complete novices to full internationals. Whatever your level, you can be sure you will enjoy the game at Silksworth.
Bowls is a fantastic sport for all ages, fitness levels and abilities, and all our members play the game in the right way, mixing with opposition players and enjoying the social aspect on the green.
We cater for all abilities and ages, and all tastes – whether you’re looking for a social activity or a competitive game, one night or more a week. If you want to come and have a go, our members will be more than happy to show you the basics.
Below you can find some information about what’s on around the green during the summer. We also have equipment and the green available to hire for kids’ parties with a difference, and for corporate team-building days. We’ve already welcomed a number of groups and teams to give the game a try, with a good mix of coaching, fun and a bit of healthy competition!
For more information, use the Contact page, or visit our Facebook page to get in touch with us.
The outdoor season runs from April to September. The green is open every weekday from 12 noon to roughly 2pm for practice and informal coaching, and we have teams playing in leagues or competitions most nights during the week.
Of course – if that’s what you’re looking for! Those who want to play competitively have ample opportunity. We play in a number of Sunderland and District competitions during the week, and we ensure that everyone who wants to play gets a chance to do so, irrespective of experience.
We’re very happy to offer a few trial sessions at the times mentioned above, before you commit to playing or joining as a member. If you decide to go ahead at that point, there are various membership and green fee options – click here for more!
