Are you the owner of Seven Kings Bowling Club?
Seven Kings Bowling Club (SKBC) has been a prominent part of the Ilford and Seven Kings community for over 90 years. Situated in the peaceful suburb of Ilford, SKBC offers a welcoming and inclusive environment for lawn bowling enthusiasts of all abilities, diverse backgrounds, and age groups. Open from May to September, the club provides opportunities for both practise sessions and competitive matches among its members.
At SKBC, the emphasis is on creating a fun and friendly atmosphere where individuals can learn and enjoy the sport of lawn bowling while making new friends and maintaining an active lifestyle. The club firmly believes that lawn bowling is not just a game for retirees, as seen in its popularity and inclusivity worldwide, including its participation in the 2022 Commonwealth Games.
Lawn bowling, also known as bowls, offers numerous health benefits, including increased physical activity and mental stimulation. A typical match at SKBC involves walking on a beautifully manicured green, picking up bowls (also called “woods”), and executing precise shots to guide the woods towards the jack, the target ball. The strategic nature of the game, combined with the physical exertion, makes it an ideal sport for individuals seeking a healthier lifestyle.
Newcomers and prospective members are encouraged to attend “Club Days” held on Wednesdays, offering trial roll-ups and free coaching sessions. Additionally, the club hosts “Family Days” and various social events throughout the year, providing opportunities for player members and their families to come together and enjoy the vibrant community atmosphere.
Experienced players will also find themselves at home at SKBC, with opportunities to further develop their skills, mentor newcomers, engage in club management, and participate in local and regional competitions. The club's success in attracting new members in the 2022 season paves the way for exciting plans in the upcoming 2023 season, including entering new competitions and renovating the clubhouse.
For those visiting London during the summer months and wishing to indulge in their passion for bowls, SKBC welcomes visitors to arrange a visit for a friendly game and a drink while enjoying the lively atmosphere of the club.
