A Warm Welcome To Dorking Bowling Club's first Web Site. The intention of this site is not only for visitors to get to know our club (after all we have been around for 97 years), but as a reference for club members. This site contains useful information for Up to Date Weather Forecast / Club Notice Board News / Maps of How To Find Us and Clubs We Visit / Mens and Ladies Club Match Diary / Fun Zone Jokes and Trivia to while away a few minutes.
New and Experienced Bowlers
Thinking about trying your hand at bowls? Come along on a Monday Night and meet with one of our three experienced, friendly and patient coaches, shoes and bowls can be provided for you to try your hand. You will soon be joining our friendly roll-ups ! Please either phone us on 01306 889686, or use the email 'Contact Us' facility.
Roll-Ups take place on a Monday afternoon and Friday evenings, with the traditional spider for a bottle of wine.
Friendly matches take place against other clubs in the Surrey and Sussex areas. We also compete in competitions including Border League, East Surrey League, North Surrey League Triples and Surrey Ladies Leagues (Mid-Surrey Ladies League and Surrey Advertiser League). Members also enter the Surrey Open Competitions.
Ladies V Gents Competition
(ladies won!)
Social Events
Our Club is not just a bowling club but has a well supported social side.
During the closed season from October to March there are Monthly Sunday Lunches usually followed by a short quiz. The 3 Course Lunches cooked by volunteer club members, are excellent quality and value for money.
During the Winter Months there are Wednesday Card and Board Games, with regular Quiz and Race Nights.
Christmas is celebrated with a Christmas Dinner and Dance, held this year at Betchworth Golf Club.
Short Breaks in the past have included trips to France and the famous Potters Bowling Centre.
 
Centenary
2012 shares not only the Olympics but celebrates our Hundredth Anniversary. We aim to make this a memorable year for the club. Our Centenary Committee are making plans now, but always welcome suggestions of how we should celebrate this period. Details will be published in the near future, so start thinking and contact Peter Rapley.
