Surrey Bowls Club

Welcome to MID SURREY BOWLS CLUB's Website

In 1921 a number of local residents with a common interest in the game under English Bowling Association Rules, met together with a view to establishing a new Bowling Club in Richmond. A tenancy of a piece of ground in the the Old Deer Park, Kew Road, Richmond, was negotiated with the Richmond Cricket Club where Mid-Surrey Bowls Club remains to this day.

The materials for the green were supplied by Councillor J.T. Mears from Chelsea Football Club of which he was, at that time, Chairman and responsible for the ground improvements then taking place at Stamford Bridge. The club was officially opened on May 20th, 1922, by the Right Hon. Viscount Cave who, together with Councillor Mears, the Club's first President, bowled the first woods.(see picture from 1922)

Since that day, English Lawn Bowls has been played on the very same green and enjoyed by thousands of people. Today, the club is a vibrant and fun place to play bowls and to socialise with other like-minded people throughout the year.  In the Summer months, May - Sept, we play against other clubs in league and friendly matches (see Fixtures). On Friday nights, we get together to play in a Club Pairs League and socialise on Club Night. In the Winter months we meet at 8pm on the last Friday of each month to catch up on news, play darts, cards etc.
