About
Leicester Banks Bowls Club, located in Leicester, is part of the Sports Club of the same name and is possibly the oldest club of its type within the city. The club has a rich history, with its origins dating back to a meeting at the now-defunct Bell Hotel in January 1878. Over the years, many banks have been represented at the club, but it has stood the test of time and continues to thrive.
In 1928, the club acquired its present ground, which spans over four and a half acres. Bowls has been played on part of this ground since then, and the club has built a strong reputation for the quality of its green, its warm hospitality, and its diverse fixture list. Leicester Banks Bowls Club is considered to be “a good club to be in” and welcomes applications for membership from individuals of all ages, genders, and abilities. However, a congenial personality is highly valued within the club.
For those who are new to the sport, the club offers the option to borrow bowls and receive tuition on most Saturday mornings. Many people have found that joining the club and participating in bowls has been a positive turning point in their lives. Not only is it a healthy and moderately physically demanding sport, but it also provides opportunities to forge new friendships.
