About Us
We are a mixed club located in the heart of Winscombe village, near Cheddar and Weston-super-Mare in Somerset. Founded in 1921 by three local gentlemen who first played bowls on the lawn of a house named Hampden, our club has grown into a vibrant and welcoming community.
Friendly & Social
We pride ourselves on our warm, inclusive atmosphere.
Members enjoy regular social events, including our popular Monday Night Club and two internal leagues that run throughout the season.
Competitive Spirit
We also compete at a high level:
• Men’s Teams: 3 teams in the Somerset County League and 2 teams in the Weston Over 55’s Triples League
• Ladies’ Teams: Competing in the North Somerset Triples League and the Wessex League
• Club Competitions: Both men and ladies participate in National and County-level events
Top-Quality Green
Our green is widely recognised as one of the finest in the South West — a point of pride for our club and a joy to play on.
Social Life
Beyond bowls, we offer a varied and lively social calendar, making the club a great place to connect, relax, and have fun.
Why not come and join us?
Whether you’re new to bowls or a seasoned player, Winscombe Bowling Club offers something for everyone.
