Ormskirk Bowling Club

I have been asked to remind all BOWLERS not to use the car park at the Dog &
Gun but to park on the nearby roads. This is to try and ensure that the
bowling green will continue to be available for bowling so it is vital
that we all comply with this. 

We have extended the deadline for clothing orders until the end of the month to give everyone chance to see the samples, which are at the back of our pavilion on the desk. It would be great if we could get as many members as possible to wear our polo shirts, sweatshirts or hoodies to impress out on the green. You can also order shower jackets, gillets or caps. See the Order Form at: https://ormskirkbowlingclub.com/clothing-order-2025/. Your last chance to order will be on Friday 2nd May.

Please complete the form located in the book on every occasion you bring a visitor.

We are proposing to carry out work on the potholes, green surrounds, gutters and shelter painting on the above date (weather permitting although looks good at present).
