Wheatley Bowls Club
Wheatley Bowls club is situated next to the village hall. For more information email mary.j.ward@talk21.com or visit our Facebook page.
The Wheatley bowling green will be opening for the new season on Saturday April 15th at 2pm (weather permitting) and every Saturday of the summer. Although the club play matches in local leagues during the week, Saturday is an informal "roll up". Players old and new can just turn up, pick a token at random and join in a game. If you would rather just give it a try and practice a little, come down on your own or in a group and we will show you the basics. Please be warned it is the most frustrating game but very addictive.
Lawn bowls is a low impact activity that combines hand-eye coordination with cognitive skills and balance to get the asymmetrical bowls closest to the jack. It improves aerobic fitness, joint mobility and balance. It is also said to reduce stress and irritability and improve mental health and social interactions.The club is very inclusive and non cliquey. We enjoy just taking part but quite like winning too.
