Free Introduction to Bowling !
Following the bowling club’s
successful Open Day
on 30th May,
prospective new
members will be
taking the
opportunity of
Friday evening free
coaching sessions.
Every Friday evening
during the Summer,
the club holds its
Umbrella nights
which is a fun
competition open to
all its members.
During the evening,
the club welcomes
anybody young and
old, male or female
to try and see for
themselves what a
fabulous sport
bowling is. The
welcome afforded by
club members will be
most warm and
friendly with a keen
desire by any of the
members to give you
the full benefit of
their experience.
There is usually a
qualified coach
available to provide
more expert tuition
if needed. All the
equipment necessary
to play bowls is
provided and all we
ask is that shoes
worn are reasonably
flat for walking on
the green.
This free offer is
open for four
separate Friday
evenings after which
one must become a
member either to
continue with the
coaching or to join
the other members in
the Friday evening
Umbrella night. So,
if you feel you
would like to give
it a go, come along
any Friday evening
at
Open Day - Sunday 30th May 2021
Long Ashton Bowling Club is
holding an Open Day on Sunday
30th May as part of
the National initiative by
Bowls England to raise
awareness of the opportunity
to take part in bowls.
Playing bowls is a great sport
for anyone young or old to
enjoy. It is as DOABLE a sport
as any you can find.
Physically, financially and
practically there are no
intrinsic reasons not to give
it a go. Bowling can give
significant mental and
physical benefits and, in some
cases can act as an essential
social lifeline. It offers a
level playing field across
ages and genders and is a
simple skill which takes just
minutes to learn, but a
lifetime to master. It’s
MESMERISING qualities capture
the imagination and gives
people the time of their life.
Friendships for life are soon
made in the pavilion and on
the rinks of our bowling club.
So come on, give it a try on
Sunday 30th May at
any time suitable to you from
