Contact

There are three ways to make initial contact with Taunton Deane Bowling Club:

• Call reception between 9-00am and 12-00pm on 01823 353644
• Email coaching@tdbowls.com.
• Fill in your details in the contact us form found here.

Taster Session for New Bowlers

Reception will contact the club coach who will then call the new contacts to make the appropriate arrangements for a free taster session lasting approximately 1 hr.

Once the Taster Session is complete the new bowlers can judge if the Sport of Bowls is for them.

Following the taster session, if the new bowlers decide to have further training, then there follows 4 x 2 hr free sessions. At the end these, the new bowlers should have a good understanding of the game of Bowls and the workings of Taunton Deane Bowling Club.

Once successful training is complete the new bowler will be offered the chance to join the club. All costs and fees will be explained but you can view or print a full list of fees here.

Equipment

Bowls and shoes are available for a coaching session, subject to availability. Any equipment borrowed must be returned to the coach at the end of your session. There is no charge for this.

There is a shop on site that supplies the required clothing and shoes. Bowls can be ordered and players often advertise good second hand bowls on the notice board.

The shop is open during the same hours as reception (see above) but there is often someone who has the keys and will be able to assist you at other times.

Applications

All applications for membership are subject to approval by the Board of Directors.

Once training has been completed and membership attained further training sessions can be arranged at the cost of a 2 hr rink fee per person. Your coach will explain how to arrange a rink booking.

Further Training

From time to time specific training sessions are advertised on the notice board and any member wishing to take part needs to add their name and contact details to the posted notice.

There are currently 6 coaches active in the club and you will find their contact details on one of the notice boards.

Opportunities for Bowlers

Opportunities for bowlers, whether new members or existing members, are listed on The Documents page. Just look under Members Information. You will also find a wealth of information on the About Us page and find the Schedule of Fees or how to Find Us or to Contact Us.
