New Romney Bowls Club
Records show that the game of bowls was played in New Romney as long ago as 1587. This tradition is maintained by the Club at the facilities in Sussex Road. These include two greens, clubhouse with bar, lounge and dining area.
Our outdoor bowling season opens in April and closes in September. The Club can be involved in playing 160 matches (fixtures) on our two bowling greens in this period. Visiting teams provide much of the competition and return year after year for their annual matches. The Club's overall policy is to provide bowling and social facilities all year round.
Club Facilities
Two bowling greens which can accommodate up to 14 rinks (112 players).
Changing rooms for home and visitors as well as mens and ladies.
Indoor short-mat bowls area for winter period.
Attractive bar with spacious seating, dining for refreshments/meals as required for
visitors and club events.
Also available are snooker, darts, quizzes and bingo sessions throughout the

New Members
The New Romney Bowls Club recognises that only by practical experience can new members decide if the actual game of Bowls is suitable for them and the Club's requirements for "beginners". On joining the Club, new members wishing to bowl will be given the instruction and practice necessary to make this decision. In the event that the actual out-door game is not appropriate for an individual, the social aspect and other activities would welcome their support and interest.
The Club is holding an Open Day for people who are interested in joining. This is on Saturday 16th April 2011 from 10.00am to 3.00pm.
