Halifax Bowling Club is blessed in many ways and one of them is having two outside Crown Greens. This enables the club to put out 29 various mixed, ladies only and men only teams into 8 different leagues every week, 6 days of the week.

There is also ample time for social bowling and improvers bowling in and amongst the league bowling. We are also popular with local and Yorkshire leagues as a venue for all types of competition, usually at the weekend.

Our greens are open all year, weather permitting, and this has enabled us to start a new Outdoor Winter League, once a week, which is proving very popular with teams of 4 players. 

We are always on the lookout for new club members and players so why don't you come along to view our excellent facilities and meet new friends.

Halifax Bowling Club is one of the best appointed clubs in the area and the only one in the town with indoor lanes. See what we have to offer...

There is a session on a Monday Morning 11.00 a.m.-12 noon for new bowlers and a Thursday morning session from 11.30 a.m.-1.00p.m. for social bowling. Everyone invited.

Indoor Bowling Results Week 3 October 2018

The outstanding result in the Friday Evening Pairs of Halifax Bowling Club’s Indoor Autumn leagues was the 9-6 defeat of T.N.T. (Pete Grant, Neil Mort) by Gary & Pat (Gary Robinson, Pat Grant). In a keen “nip and tuck” encounter T.N.T. went into an early lead with all four players contributing to an excellent game of indoor bowls. However at three ends, T.N.T. were holding 2 “4”’s and a “2”, but the skip for Gary & Pat, Pat Grant bowled in to take “shot”. At the start of the last end Gary & Pat were leading by 8 shots to 6 leaving all to play for, but Gary and Pat maintained their advantage to score a single and take the game by 9 shots to 6.

Veterans Merit 2018

The Vets had their last competition.  ( the Merit )  on Wed. 3rd October.
16 Vets entered this year and the first round saw some interesting results, particularly Patrick O'Connor beating Gary Robinson and Ian Sutcliffe getting the better of Steve Wandiak.
In the Semi - Final Ray Ciegg (everyone's favourite to win the competition) played Patrick who pulled out his best performance ever to stop Ray in his tracks and surprise us all.
 The other semi was played between 2 weary opponents in David Armitage and Tony Clayton. In a close encounter Tony justifiably gained the victory.
This may have helped Tony in the Final against Patrick because this was yet another nailbiter and played in good spirits with the score at all-but across and Tony wlnning the point needed to exit the Green a very weary man indeed. 
Thanks to both players for a very entertaining Final and all the vets who entered this last competition of 2018
