Founded in 1903, now with 120 members, a 7-rink green, car park, fully stocked bar, qualified coaches, regular social events - what are you waiting for? Buddy scheme for new members - free coaching - bowls available to borrow - you only need a pair of flat shoes and an enthusiastic attitude! We've met with success at both County and National level over the years, and many of our players regularly represent Sussex at all levels.

Lindfield Bowling Club was founded in 1903, and through a mixture of good management and competitive success, remains one of the strongest bowls clubs in Sussex, boasting a playing membership of over 130 bowlers plus a junior section. We have a very active social calendar, with regular quizzes, barbecues, fun bowls events and other special events arranged throughout the year.
Services
Our internal competitions are open to all playing members, although some (such as the Backbone, Veterans and Butfoy) have specific entry requirements. You can enter the competitions from January right up until the opening season coffee morning, usually in mid-April. The exception to this rule is the 2 Wood Mixed Triples.
We have teams in four leagues, the Border League is a men's league and involves the clubs around Sussex/Surrey border, such as Popes Mead, Redhill, Newdigate, Horley, etc. The Mid-Sussex and John Spriggs leagues both feature mixed teams, with the Spriggs acting as a 'feeder' league into the main Mid-Sussex league.
Alternatively, you can download the membership application form in MS Word format, print it off, and send it to the membership secretary (address on the form). There is a yearly club subscription of 40, plus the annual council fee. For the first year there is an introductory rate, the amount of which is dependent on age.
We are indebted to these sponsors for boosting our finances, and allowing us to continue to enjoy playing bowls. Nestled in the heart of Borde Hill Garden and run by Jeremy and Vera Ashpool, Jeremy's Restaurant provides that perfect combination of a country idyll matched by creative cuisine and warm friendly service.

Lovely green, friendly members, coaching available, good social atmosphere and some fine players. For those new to the game it offers plenty of playing opportunities without having to participate in leagues.

Very friendly club with players of all levels. Quite traditional with Bowls England approved dress code for matches. More relaxed for club games and practice. Just ask if your not sure!

There's a 1* 'review' (no words) that was placed arbitrarily, I suspect; so I thought I should redress the balance.
Great club, very nice people, very good green surface; a pleasure to be a part of the club.

A friendly and well-run club where everyone has something to do, and there are more matches than it's humanly possible to play in a season. Lots of social events and the green plays better than it looks. Recommended.
