Are you the owner of Burnham Hillside Bowls Club?
Behind the scenes at Burnham Hillside Bowls Club, Alan, a key organiser, ensures that everything runs smoothly at this historic club established in 1931. Located in Burnham-on-Crouch, this club is more than just a venue; it’s a community where members come together over their shared love for the sport.
Nestled a short distance from the quayside, the club welcomes both seasoned bowlers and newcomers. Qualified coaches are on hand to help members improve their skills, providing a supportive environment for all levels.
One standout feature is the meticulously maintained green. Thanks to the dedication of the Green Team, it’s recognised as one of the best in the area. Alan takes pride in this, knowing how crucial a good playing surface is for both enjoyment and performance.
Throughout the summer, the club is abuzz with activity, participating in leagues and tournaments like the Chelmsford & District Bowling Association's Wednesday evening leagues and the Atkinson Shield and League (Marconi) Cup. There are also plenty of opportunities for “friendly” games. Club competitions keep the competitive spirit alive, with members also able to enter events through the Dengie Hundred Bowling Association.
Friday nights bring the members together for a popular league, fostering both competition and camaraderie. Even in the off-season, the club stays active with indoor/outdoor leagues at the Jacks Centre and short-mat leagues in the Clubhouse, organised by Alan and his team.
But it's not just about bowls at Burnham Hillside. Social events, from Bingo to Quiz nights, bring members together off the green. Alan prioritises creating a safe, inclusive environment, reflected in the club’s strong safeguarding policies available on their website.
For those looking to join, membership details are easily accessible online. Alan and the team are always eager to welcome new members to this thriving community.
