Birchington-on-Sea Bowls Club situated in Thanet was established in 1961.The Green and Clubhouse is situated in Beach Avenue, Birchington. There is a large car park, and tennis courts which are open to the public. The clubhouse has a modern kitchen, and a bar which is open during matches.
We welcome members of all ages and abilities. We offer FULL and JUNIOR membership for those who want to play and a SOCIAL membership for those who just want to support the club, join in the social activities we run during the winter months and enjoy the friendly and peaceful (sometimes!) atmosphere that surrounds the game of bowls and our bowling green.
New members are always welcome so come along and enjoy the gentle game of bowls which costs a lot less than golf, will keep you fit and will make you a lot of new friends.
The club plays over 100 matches each season. This includes both away and home fixtures. Many of these matches are against local teams but we also have a number of teams who regularly visit us from as far away as Croydon and Coney Hall on the outskirts of London. The majority of the friendly games are mixed matches that take place in the afternoons. Fixture list 2012
For the more competitive minded we take part in the Men's and the Ladies Isle of Thanet Leagues. These are triples matches, the Men's taking place in the evenings during May -August. The Ladies matches are usually in the afternoons. We also participate in the East Kent League, a mixed triples league, playing as far away as Ashford.
Team selection sheets are posted in the Men's and Ladies' changing rooms and all Full and Junior members are entitled to enter their names for consideration for selection for any of the games.
Club Roll ups on a Monday afternoon are informal friendly gatherings for members. Here is a chance to meet fellow bowlers, have a relaxing game or even try out some new woods or bowling actions!
A Friday Night Club Mixed League takes place June-August. This is a fun night - plenty of banter and a light supper is usually provided for those who to wish to stay and socialise after the game.
Club Competitions take place during the season with the Finals taking place in September. These are open to Full and Junior members.
We also have two tennis courts which are open all the year round. Why not take advantage of our annual subscription scheme - £10 for juniors, £25 for adults and £50 for a family of 2 adults and up to 3 children.
