Open Triples Sept 2rd 2007

 

Bowling at Camberley..... friendly, fun, social & competitive !

Once the season gets into full swing there are bowls matches of one sort or another almost every day. We cater for both the competitive bowler and the occasional social bowler, something for all.

Friendly matches
At the heart of the club and throughout the season we play friendly matches of Rinks [4 players] and  Triples, at home and away, mostly against other local clubs. These take place at weekends, weekdays both afternoons and during the evening, enabling all to choose a suitable time to play. 

For many bowlers new to the game, these friendlies provide the first taste of competitive, but social  bowling, followed by tea or supper as appropriate. Camberley also has an annual home and away match against Rowner Bowling Club in Portsmouth and both clubs enjoy a spirited time on the green and in the bar afterwards. 

Very much in that vain we acknowledge and thank ESSO for their continued support of Camberley Bowling Club as they host one of our 'Bowling Days' and this is a great bowling, fun and social experience, and we look forward to welcoming our ESSO friends for the 2006 annual match!

League games
Camberley Men's and Ladies' bowling sections compete in National, County and District competitions and local Leagues. The Men’s Aldershot & District league games are played on Tuesday evenings throughout the season, whilst for the Ladies, Friday evening sees Blackwater Valley play, with Monday evening the West Surrey League. A popular match is the Knaphill League where Mixed Teams [Triples] play every Thursday afternoon. 

This year Camberley has also entered Teams in the West Surrey Sapphire League, more members and playing ability has enabled us to do this.

Club competitions
A comprehensive range of club tournaments allows for friendly rivalry between members and the challenge of honing the game for that match moment. All members are encouraged to take part for Club Honours and these competitions see the winners receive their trophies at the end of season presentation night. 

There is also the annual Novice Cup for those new to bowls and improving. 

For the more serious bowler the Club Championships and other major competitions offers a chance to challenge those holding the title from the previous year [see Camberley Honours Board].

Camberley also runs an Open Triples Tournament - this year on Sunday Sept 3rd 2006. For an entry form click here or call 07840 302859. We thank our sponsors, Kingsclear Care Homes, Charters Peugeot of Camberley and Notcutts Garden Centres for their continuing support in helping to provide for the day.
