FREE OPEN DAYS Saturday 16th April, Friday 21st April FREE FAMILY OPEN DAY Sunday 30th April
You don’t have to be retired to play bowls as you can play evenings and weekends. At Ferndown we can play 7 days a week, April to September, up to 8.45 pm depending on dusk.
Lawn bowls can be played purely for relaxation and social interaction but depending on your level of interest can also be more challenging and played club, county and even international level. Could you imagine playing a sport for your county – or even the country? Three of our junior members already play for Dorset.
You are invited to attend one of our FREE “Open Days” on Sunday 16th April or Friday 21st April. These are from 10 am to 4 pm at our friendly club at King George V playing fi elds, off Church Road, Ferndown, BH22 9EN. Bowls, and tuition from one of our coaches will be provided, but please just wear fl at shoes.
If you enjoy our Open day or cannot make one of those days, we also run “Try Bowls” sessions on Friday afternoons to help you make up your mind if you would like to join us. The cost for these sessions is £20 for 4 weeks tuition which will be deducted from your membership subscription if you join. If you couldn’t attend the Open Day, your fi rst session will even be free.
Lawn bowls is not just for adults as it can be played by the whole family. As well as our general open days (above), we are also holding a “Family Open Day” on Sunday 30th April. Bring your children along, (age 7 upwards) and all have a go together. Teenagers are especially welcome and we can include them in adult games.
We also run youth sessions on Sunday mornings from 10 -11 am for youngsters from age 7. Up to age of 12, we ask that an adult accompanies them.
More ladies would be especially welcome as we are currently outnumbered by the men. The annual Ladies v Men match is a hotly contested, even if light-hearted, competition. A great way of getting exercise without getting too hot and tired.
We would love to welcome you to our club.
