Coaches and Coaching
The Club has Coaches who are qualified to coach and help new, developing and more experienced bowlers. All our Coaches have Enhanced DBS clearance and are fully insured. Within the team we have Coaches who have attended courses on First Aid, Adult and Child Safeguarding and Dementia Awareness. We can also help those physical difficulties or restrictions.
All coaching is free and for those new to the sport sessions are provided to introduce them to the basics of the game, during which all equipment, including bowls, is provided by the club, all that is needed are flat soled shoes e.g., trainers. Coaches can also advise on the purchase of bowls and other equipment.
Further coaching is readily available to help overcome problems or develop specific skills. Coaching can be on a one-to-one basis or for small groups as required.
