Prattens Bowls Club Prattens Bowls Club is situated in Westfield behind the neatly trimmed hedge on the opposite side of the Prattens Westfield Sports and Social Club (just off Charlton Lane). Not for nothing is bowls known as the Sport for All, with world champions having been aged from late teens to thirties and players into their eighties playing regularly and competitively. Prattens is an outdoors bowls club for people of any age with the outdoor season running from mid-April (green opens 13th April 2024) until mid-September. Matches for ladies are played mainly in the afternoons, with men playing their games largely on Saturday afternoons and weekday evenings. Mixed matches are mainly on Sunday afternoons and Friday evenings. Prattens also hold social events at the bowls club.
For further details, see our website at www.prattensbowlsclub.com where you will find regular updates of what is happening at the club. Many members have found bowls to be an enjoyable sociable sport to move on to after playing other sports such as Rugby, Netball, Tennis, Football and even some who did not find Golf to their liking. If you would like to try bowls, and why would you not, come along to our Monday club night from 6.00 pm during the season where members (old, new and potential) will be warmly welcomed. We can arrange free assistance to play with bowls being available to borrow – just wear a pair of flat soled shoes. Membership is free to new bowlers in their first season. In order to facilitate access for older bowlers and those with additional needs, we have recently installed a ramp from the car park. If you are interested in joining, you contact Barrie or Pauline Dando on 01761 412705 for more information.
