Further Description
  • All About UsKislingbury Bowls Club was re-formed in the 1970's by a group of villagers. (see history section). We are a mixed club in as much that the club is managed by a mixed committee. There are several sub-committee's who have specialised roles such as catering, promotions and social events, building maintenance and bar, etc. It is generally recognised that Kislingbury has some of the best facilities in the county with regard to the standard of the green and club house.Although we claim to be a mixed club the ladies and the men both have their own sections with their own fixture lists. We do have a few midweek mixed games.All the work involved involved with running the club is done voluntarily but also very professionally. As we have a junior section we also have to have a child support officer.The junior section was formed in an attempt to encourage youngsters into the sport and at present have about 8 youngster who also get involved by playing in the adult matches. Many pundits hold the opinion that bowling is not a game for youngsters, but there is a very interesting fact which proves that this is not the case.DID YOU KNOW THAT THE AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL BOWLS SQUAD IS YOUNGER THAT THE AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL CRICKET SQUAD!During the outdoor playing season the club also has internal competitions which are played off during the summer months with finals being played in September. Several members also enter The County Competitions in the hope of representing The County in The All England finals held at Worthing and Leamington Spa.In this respect our ladies have been more successful than the men and the honours boards and photos bear witness to that.At the end of the summer we move into a more social atmosphere with shortmat bowls, lunches, pantomime and parties.Wish to join us but worried that you have not played before? No Problem! We have a team of qualified instructors to get you started at no cost. We have woods that you can borrow of various sizes.   If you have any queries at all check out our "contact us" page and phone or e-mail our secretaries and they will be quite happy to talk to you and answer any questions you may have.Touring Northamptonshire?? We would be quite happy to accommodate your club should you be coming to this county in a friendly game in whatever format. Please contact our secretary for further details and dates available.
