Milford on Sea Bowls Club Open Morning 2024

Milford on Sea Bowls Club has been a prominent feature of the village since 1933. Located on the seafront, the green boasts one of the finest vistas on the South Coast with stunning views of Christchurch Bay, the Isle of Wight and The Needles. Such is the draw of the location that they attract members from New Milton, Barton and Lymington areas in addition to Milford and Everton.

The club compete in both the New Forest and Bournemouth and District Ladies’ and Men’s Leagues and are members of the Hampshire County Bowling Association. They also host “friendly” matches with clubs from further afield. In addition, they have club matches, providing both a social and friendly competitive atmosphere for their members.

A team of accredited coaches are always ready and willing to provide support, whether to a new rookie bowler or to perfect the skills of an experienced league player. These facilities are provided free of charge to members.

The outdoor season typically runs from April until the end of September each year. During Autumn and Winter there is a indoor short mat facility available to all members in the clubhouse.

Regular Club Social events are held throughout the year, both outdoors and in the clubhouse building. There is also a licensed bar available for the use of members and their visitors.

The annual open morning is on Wednesday 24th April 2024 at 10.30am to 12.30pm. Come along to find out more about this friendly Club, and have the chance to try out the game for yourself. Shoes, bowls and coaching provided.

In the meantime, please do not hesitate to visit the club website – www.milfordonseabowlsclub.org – or give the Club Coach, Janet, a call on 01590 645258.
