Eastbourne & District Indoor Bowls Club

The Club is situated within the parkland area of Hampden Park and is readily accessible, having car parking facilities and being surrounded by beautiful scenery for all to enjoy.

The club was opened in 1979 and, as at July 2013, the total membership stands at 586, with 173 social members and several juniors.

We are affiliated to the E.I.B.A, Sussex County Indoor Bowling Association, English Women's Indoor Bowling Association and the Sussex County Women's Bowling Association.

Facilities

We have six rinks of "Greengauge", carpet laid on a wooden floor with the highest quality lighting, and the running surfaces are kept in immaculate condition enabling bowlers of all standards to really enjoy their game.

Spectators are able to view the greens from a raised area and it is there that members enjoy a fully stocked bar, which is in constant use!

In addition the Club enjoys a large enclosed, dining and social area and benefits from a well appointed committee room, which other local clubs often use.

Bowling at E&DIBC

During the day the rinks are always full of members on "booked rinks", and new members are always welcomed into this relaxed arena of bowling.

The ladies play friendly inter club matches with other clubs on Tuesday afternoons, the men on Wednesday, and during the weekend, and in addition welcome touring sides and County teams whenever the opportunity arises.

During the season the Club members bowl in some two hundred and thirty competitive matches against other club teams and Internal Club competitions take place in the evenings over the weekends. In addition Men's Evening Leagues are very popular and the ladies enjoy their own separate Leagues.
