About Us
THE HISTORY OF THORNDON BOWLS CLUB
​
There are two bodies covering bowls played in England today, each with their own rules, known as Bowls England and the English Bowing Federation. The latter was formed due to the fact that in several rural counties the game, as in the case of Thorndon, was played on smaller greens behind pubs and could not meet the criteria of the governing body. Locally there are still three such clubs playing on a pub green, namely Kenninghall Red Lion, Stradbroke White Hart and Coney Weston Swan.
