For the members here at Trowbridge Town, the bowling season usually starts around mid April, depending on permission from the greenkeeper, and runs until the end of September. During the season there are many different forms of the game that our bowlers participate in and it is quite common to find that there can be a game taking place every day, home or away. Below you can find the different forms of the game the club and individual bowlers participate in during the season.
At the club there are currently around 80 members of both men and ladies. Although the club do not have the amount of members as some of the other clubs within Wiltshire the atmosphere could not be friendlier.
