Hexham (Elvaston) Bowling Club
Welcome!
Welcome to the website of
Hexham Elvaston Bowling Club
in Northumberland.
There is a real feel of positivity about the club as league competition has started. We have been very encouraged by so many people - at least twenty - joining us for each of our Bowling Taster days on Saturdays. These are free with no commitment. Except we think you'll like it and want to join the club - as many already have. With free coaching and lots of encouragement it really is worth a try. Details of how to sign up are on this Home page. And it's not too late to come along.

The season is beginning to get some swing about it now. Sign-up sheets are posted for club competitions and friendlies and are there for you to add your name. League matches have started.
Don't forget you can bowl on the green at any reasonable time there is not a league, friendly or county match in progress,
but as a reminder we are the venue for a Northumberland County match versus Yorkshire on May 22nd. The green will be prepared in the morning and the match played in the afternoon. The green is closed for club bowling during the day but open after the match finishes at 6.00pm.
Please note that maintenance on the green normally takes place on Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings from 9.00-11.00am when play is not allowed.

LEAGUE MATCHES & FRIENDLIES Our club competes in each of the three leagues below. Members of all abilities are invited to come in to the clubhouse and look at the sign-up sheets on the notice boards for the league, fixture and date and enter their name on as many sheets as they feel able to commit to. Teams will be selected from the names entered on the sheets. Please don't be disappointed if you are not selected for every match you enter, it's good for as many as possible to have a go.
