About our Club

Bowlers have been enjoying their sport on the greens at Babbacombe Bowling Club for over 120 years. We are a friendly club and always extend a warm welcome to players and the general public alike.

Babbacombe Bowling Club plays outdoor bowls, with some indoor matches during the winter, and a short mat season in the clubhouse in the winter.

We welcome new members (both full and social), tours, friendly matches and competitive league players.

 

Two weeks in …

Two weeks into the season and we have already hosted five tourist matches.  So far we have been lucky enough to welcome the following bowling clubs – Newquay Trenance, Spencer Moulton (Bradford On Avon), Llanbradach (Wales), Bath Post Office and Auriol (Surrey).  The weather has been kind to us so far and fingers crossed this continues !

As always, the public are welcome to come and spend an hour or two watching people enjoying a great sport
