Our tennis club and the bowls club play in the County leagues, and the snooker and pool teams compete regularly in their leagues. Cricket nets, a bowling machine, a tennis ball feeder and regular coached practice evenings from the club’s qualified coaches make for a good introduction to any game or smooth transition into any of our teams. The quality of our facilities means our grounds are regularly used by the Institute of Groundsmanship for training courses.
