Stratton Bowling Club

Stratton Bowling Club, based in Poundfield, Stratton, has been a key part of the community since 1929 when it was established by the Stratton Traders Association. As it marked its 90th Anniversary in 2019, the club continues its journey with over 80 full members and extends a warm welcome to newcomers.

Alfie Graham, the organiser, emphasises that the club is dedicated to creating a friendly and inclusive environment for bowlers at all levels, whether you're a beginner or an experienced player. The club holds open days regularly to introduce people to the sport and provides free coaching to help players improve their skills.

Conveniently located just off the A39 at Stratton, the club offers plenty of free parking on-site, ensuring easy access. The outdoor season runs from mid-April to mid-September, featuring a range of activities including club roll-ups, friendly matches against local clubs, league matches for both men and ladies, and internal competitions catering to all skill levels. During the winter, members can enjoy indoor short mat bowls in the clubhouse, which provides similar opportunities for staying active.

The club's large clubhouse includes a licenced bar, providing a relaxed setting for members to socialise after a game. It serves as a central hub for community events, fostering camaraderie among members.

For those interested in the club's history, there is a dedicated page on their website detailing its rich past. Information about committee members, their contact details, and a calendar of events can also be found there.

Stratton Bowling Club appreciates the support of its sponsor, who offers various accommodation options such as touring, camping, holiday homes, and luxury lodges.

To stay informed on the latest news and events, visitors are encouraged to check the “Latest News” section on the club's website. The website also links to organisations like Bowls Cornwall, Bowls England, and Short Mat England for those seeking further information about bowls.

Stratton Bowling Club welcomes both seasoned bowlers and beginners. The club is committed to offering a positive and enjoyable experience for all members, with Alfie and the dedicated committee, coaches, and members always on hand to assist.
