ABOUT

We are a lawn bowls club in the Herefordshire market town of Kington.


We participate in a mixed sex league and also play friendly games against local clubs and visiting teams.


There are a variety of club competitions during the season, which runs from April to September.


We welcome bowlers of all standards, from novice to experienced Club bowlers.

We can arrange for you to ‘have a go’ and you will only need some flat soled shoes (trainers are generally fine).

We can provide a choice of loan bowls to suit, and members will be happy to provide some basic tuition to get you started if you are new to the game.

Bowls is an activity which provides physical exercise to help improve your flexibility and fitness whilst at the same time providing a social atmosphere with team mates and other club members.

If you would like to find out more about the Club or wish to apply for membership please contact the club secretary.
