Visitors are always welcome and experienced bowlers may join in open bowling sessions. Newcomers wishing to try out the game may do so free and should contact the above or any club member. While club bowls are available for use by beginners to determine the size and type best-suited to them, established players usually own a set of bowls. Dress is casual except for tournament play when whites or club colours are worn. Flat-soled shoes, with low or no heels, must be worn to protect the green.
