In the meantime if you would like to share your ideas and possibly make suggestions for further additions and improvements, please contact:

Basingstoke Town Bowling Club is situated in the Fairfields conservation area one of the older residential parts of the town. We currently have around 55 active bowling, 25 plus social and 15 life members. We are one of a few clubs in the area who has seen an ongoing increase in membership these past few years (2009/10).
New members are always welcomed, whatever experience or age. Coaching is always available and club officers will try to ensure your time with us will be enjoyable. All new members, irrespective of bowling experience, will be allocated a 'time-served' club member as their mentor in order to acclimatise the newcomers.
To further enhance the reputation of the 'Town' as the top club in the area, it has enlisted some of the finest senior graded coaches in the County. Coaching will commence Saturday 14th May. Refreshments and a buffet lunch will be provided for a nominal charge. Details can be found in a recent newsletter.
To encourage non-bowlers to take the sport up, the green will be open to visitors every Saturday morning from 10.00 to 13.00 running from early May through to the end of August. If they have never played before, expert tuition will be on hand. All equipment, except shoes, will be provided. We suggest trainers are worn. So, if you are in the Fairfields area on a Saturday during the summer, come in and 'have a go'. We look forward to meeting you.
Awards Presentation Evening
As in previous years, the awards presentation evening was held at Loddon Vale Indoor Bowling Club. It was encouraging to see some of the newcomers to the Club pick up trophies. Congratulations to all winners & better luck next time to the runners-up.
On behalf of all attendees, many thanks to Keith McEwan & Steve Harris for organising a truly ejoyable evening.
