Are you the owner of Oak Hill Bowls Club?
Oak Hill Bowls Club, founded in 1956, is a friendly and competitive sports club located in Oak Hill Park, East Barnet, Hertfordshire. The club is affiliated with Bowls England, Hertfordshire Bowls, Finchley & North London Bowls Association, and the St. Albans & District Ladies Bowls Association.
Throughout the outdoor bowls season, from the end of April to the end of September each year, Oak Hill Bowls Club organises a full programme of fixtures and other bowls-related activities. The club welcomes both beginners and experienced bowlers, with a team of registered coaches available to provide training and support for those interested in learning the sport.
In addition to its regular fixtures and activities, Oak Hill Bowls Club also welcomes other clubs interested in arranging fixtures against them. The club is known for its friendly and welcoming atmosphere, and prides itself on its inclusiveness and attitude free of all prejudices.
Membership at Oak Hill Bowls Club is available in four main categories: full-playing members, associate members, junior members, and social members. Full-playing members have the opportunity to represent the club in friendly and competitive matches, as well as enter club, district, county, and national competitions. Associate membership is for those who wish to participate in occasional informal play. Junior membership is available for individuals under 18 and provides similar benefits as full-playing membership at a reduced subscription rate.
Social membership is for non-playing members who want to utilise the club's facilities and participate in social activities.
The club operates under a long-term lease with the London Borough of Barnet, but is responsible for managing all other aspects of the club. The bowling green is maintained by a specialist company, Amenity Sports Management, in consultation with the club's Green Manager. The club's location within Oak Hill Park provides a beautiful setting, with a view of the Oak trees on the hill from the clubhouse and green.
When it comes to dress code, the club has a relaxed policy for most internal club games and events, allowing for freedom of movement and avoiding distractions or offences. However, footwear must comply with Bowls England regulations, typically requiring flat-soled bowling shoes in brown, grey, or white. For fixtures with other clubs, the Bowls England dress code applies.
Oak Hill Bowls Club is open from mid-April through the end of September, with opening hours from 10 am to dusk. The club also offers its facilities for private events, serving as a venue for various occasions.
