There are four ways to play lawn bowls at Malvern Priory Bowling Club
- Roll-Ups : social play between members but also the best Taster Sessions for beginners.
- In a team in a Friendly fixture, which can involve as many as 18 players. Fixtures are listed below.
- In a team in a League fixture. Again these are listed below.
- In one of the intra-club tournaments, details of which are posted on the noticeboard in the clubhouse.
Roll-Ups
Roll-Ups are on Tuesdays and Fridays at 2.15 pm (unless there is a club fixture) during the lawn bowling season (mid-April to early October). No formal uniform is needed but flat soled shoes are required. It helps if players can arrive at or shortly after 2.00pm so that they are organised into teams for play to start at 2.15pm. Roll-Ups are simple social afternoons where we organise into teams of 2 or 3 per side and play up to 18 ends, closing at around 4pm for tea or coffee in the clubhouse.
A Roll-Up is the best Taster Session for potential new members wanting to try the game. Playing at your first Roll-Up is free. We can provide basic coaching, and we have bowls available for beginners. Come and try bowls on our beautiful green with views of Malvern and the hills. You should dress casually but it is important to wear flat-soled trainers.
The normal fee for a Roll-Up is £3. Visitors are asked to pay £5.
In the event of a match fixture which limits either the availability of rinks on the green or senior members to organise the Roll-Up, alternative days for a Roll-Up may be considered. Please watch for notices in the Clubhouse.
