We are a small friendly Club established in the 1936 and still going strong. We play a large number of friendly games against other Clubs in the area ranging from Bearsted in the North to Tenterden in the South.
For the more competitive, we have two mixed teams in the Weald League of which Hunton BC was a founder member. We also have two teams in the Maidstone Men’s Triple League. Hunton Ladies also play in the Maidstone & District Ladies’ League. Hunton was the first Club in the area to become a totally integrated Men’s and Ladies Club, which we play on an equal basis.
Some of our members enter the Kent County Competitions and most members compete against one another for the six club trophies. It is hoped that everyone will take part in the competitions. These are a lot of fun and for the newer members a jolly good way to get to know people.
Club members help/volunteer to maintain the club’s facilities and green with all getting involved to a greater or lesser degree, according to their likes and abilities. It is hoped that men will assist with cutting the grass and surrounding areas and general tidying up. Ladies are asked to help with the teas for friendly matches and light cleaning duties of the facilities.
We offer competitive and friendly bowling against other clubs and welcome new members of any ability - from absolute beginners to experienced players. We are a very friendly club and you will be assured of a very warm welcome so why not come along and give us a try?
We can offer free coaching and the loan of bowls until you decide whether or not the sport is for you. All you need to bring are flat-soled shoes/trainers. A training and practice session is held on Thursday evening from
4 pm onwards during the club’s outdoor playing season April – September when newcomers and existing members can learn the basics of the game and hone their skills for an enjoyable hour or so. New members are invited to 3 free roll-ups which will give you a taste of what the game is all about and hopefully decide to join the club.
Anyone interested in finding out more about the game please contact our Club Secretary or Club Captain – details can be found in the Fixture Card
