A message from the President
Welcome to Braeside Bowling Club.
We can offer all year bowling as we have an artificial surface, and all
visitors will receive
a warm and friendly welcome. Come along and experience the joy of
outdoor bowls.
Connie Phipps - President 2015
Details of the Club
- Braeside is one of
the very
few clubs in Hampshire and Dorset that can offer all
year round
bowling on it's artificial surface.
- We have a spacious and comfortable Club House with a
fully
equipped kitchen and an
excellent bar offering a wide range of drinks
at very competitive prices.
Bowling
for Beginners
- Even if you have never played bowls before, our
qualified
and experienced coaches are always
available with help and advice, they
run initial coaching courses.
- After a short while new members are encouraged to
join our
social bowling games,
designed to improve bowling skills and provide an
opportunity to meet other members.
Further
bowling Opportunities
- To further develop bowling skills and to experience
competitive bowling, the club arranges several "Friendly Matches"
against other clubs. These matches are
always played in a good spirit
and are available to all club members.
- It is hoped that as bowlers gain more experience they
will
be invited to play in our full programme of
"League Matches" against
other local clubs.
- Further bowling opportunities include "Day Trips" to
clubs
further afield and the occasional bowling holidays at home and abroad.

currently an
annual subscription of £140 with no further playing
