Filkins Bowls Club
Filkins Bowls Club
Filkins Bowls Club was formed in 1936, the green being laid on land granted to the club by
Sir Stafford Cripps to be held in trust by the club so long as it remains in being.
The club provides an important social and recreational facility in the village, and is maintained
almost entirely by the voluntary efforts of members. As well as the green, a small pavilion was
built by members, helped by a grant from the Sports Council.
Filkins Bowls Club has traditionally followed a policy of keeping costs and fees to a minimum consistent with financial self-sufficiency
and augments its income from very modest subscriptions and match fees by means of an energetic social and fundraising calendar which includes the village's annual
Flower Show and Fete held on the last weekend in August.
If you would like more information about the Bowls Club or details on how you can get involved, please contact one of the clubs officers.
