Welcome to Egerton Park Indoor Bowls Club
Welcome to Egerton Park Indoor Bowls Club, who welcome anyone from the surrounding district, to join our friendly club. Bowling at Egerton is for all age groups and various skill sets. We have people on hand, who can coach you through the basic starting points, which is done in a casual relaxed way, enabling beginners to enjoy the experience. Obviously, being an indoor rink, people can bowl as little or as much as they like, all through the year, whatever the weather. We also have a wonderful restaurant and bar with refreshments available all day. You can join either as a playing member or for a reduced fee, become a social member, where you can watch the games, whist taking advantage of all the facilities.
Indoor bowling in Bexhill traces its origins back to 1903 with the construction of the Shelter Hall in Egerton Park, which was proposed to double as a venue for indoor bowls and various events. Although there is no conclusive evidence that the hall was used for bowling initially, by 1907 the local council allocated funds for an indoor rink within the hall, indicating a burgeoning interest in the sport. Outdoor bowls had been a feature in Bexhill since the same year, following its popularity in private gardens, marking the beginning of a rich bowling tradition in the town.
The Bexhill Bowling Club, established before World War I, was the town's first, succeeding where an earlier attempt by a cricket club had failed. The Egerton Park Pavilion Theatre, built in 1933, became one of the earliest indoor bowling centres, adapting for bowling in winter seasons. Over the decades, the club evolved, expanding its facilities and hosting successful tournaments.
