Coaching

How can I get information about Coaching

There is a Contact Form on this page which you can complete and a Club Coach will contact you.

It is important that your bowling experience begins with a coaching session because this will ensure that you will start without developing bad habits.

Coaching is normally arranged for a Friday afternoon but coaching  is not restricted to this day and time.  It can be arranged to suit the new member as far as possible.


Are there any special fitness exercises for bowlers?

New players are encouraged to Keep fit and healthy.  Some good advice is included in the attached videos
