WINSCOMBE BOWLING CLUB
green

We are a Mixed Club in the centre of Winscombe village which is near Cheddar and Weston super Mare in Somerset.
We were founded in 1921 by three gentlemen who played bowls on the lawn of a house in the village  ‘Hampden’. 
We are a friendly club that enjoys a good Social atmosphere, including our Monday Night Club and two internal Leagues.
However, we also play more competitively too!
The Men in the Somerset County League where we now have 3 teams and the Weston Over 55’s Triples League were we have just set up a second team and where we have enjoyed considerable success.
Our Ladies play in the North Somerset Triples League and The Wessex League.
Both the Men & Ladies play in National and County Club Competitions.

A BIG THANK YOU

All the Winscombe Captains wish to place on record their thanks for the support given to them by all Club members, both playing members and those who have supported them in club activities throughout the year.

We are grateful to those who have catered for our matches and to those who have prepared our wonderful green.

We give particular thanks to those, and there are many of them, who have responded positively to late requests to play when others have absented themselves from teams.
