Code of Conduct
As with all sports, you are asked to treat your fellow players with the normal respect and courtesy.  Inappropriate language and gestures should not be used or tolerated.  Remember that, even in the heat of competition, bowls should be a friendly game to play.  Smoking is not permitted inside the gate from the car park or in the Clubhouse.
During coaching you will learn the rules for the order of play and the etiquette. The following are the main points. Most games that you will take part in will be "Triples" (teams of 3 players each having 3 bowls).
  • The first player or "lead" positions the mat, delivers the jack, shows the “skip" how to centre the jack, and delivers his or her bowls alternating with the opposing lead, followed by the No.2 player.
  • The No.2 player assists the "skip" and agrees the "count" or score with the opposing No.2, measuring distances where necessary.
  • The final player or "skip" directs the game and plays last.
The lead should not be tempted to give advice, nor should he or she assist with the count.  Games of four players each with two bowls (“Rinks”) follow a similar procedure.
More detailed rules of etiquette are given on the notice board and website.
The Club operates a safeguarding policy: for details see the notice board and website.

Dress Code

​The current dress code for roll ups is smart casual.  For matches, it is dependent on the day and the competition, generally though midweek, greys below the waist and club shirt or white above and weekends white below the waist.
Coaching
The Club has two qualified Club coaches:
Hilary Mitchell, e-mail handk36@btinternet.com, Tel. 01483 276584.
John Greenwood, e-mail johnhgreenwood@outlook.com, Tel. 01483 273095.
A four week coaching course, run in collaboration with Cranleigh and District U3A, is held on Monday afternoons early in the outdoor season. Alternatively, individual coaching can be arranged with the Club coaches.  Special sessions for Short Mat players wishing to play outdoor bowls are held at the start of each outdoor season.
A small fee is charged for the U3A course, otherwise all coaching is free.
