Sun Bowls Club

The Sun Bowls Club was formed in October 1970, although there has been a bowls club at the
site since 1926 as part of the Sun Works, later the Overseas Trading Company. The original
clubhouse was opened in May 1928 by the Bailiff of Jersey.

Today, the Sun Bowls Club is a popular and thriving bowls club with over 170 members, both
playing and social, which offers a very warm welcome to all players and visitors, whether local
or from further afield.

The green, first laid in 1926, is maintained by club members and is generally regarded as one of
the best in the island. The clubhouse is a listed building and is maintained by club members. It
has been developed over the years and now boasts a fully fitted kitchen and in 2012, a club bar
was added.

The club can boast many successes locally, nationally and internationally. Members continue to
do well in local inter-club competitions and leagues and some have represented Jersey at
British Isles, Island Games and Commonwealth games level.

The club runs formal leagues and knock out competitions, a full programme of Sunday
competitions – which are open to all members – as well as friendlies against other clubs and
visiting teams. Recent additions to the diary are the John Mitchell and Thursday morning fun
leagues, which are very popular, especially with newer members. There is also the very
competitive annual St Brelade’s singles for 7 men and 7 ladies and the St Saviour’s Mixed Pairs.

We are happy to organise Corporate events at the Club.

The Club dress code is casual, except for representative matches, when Club kit is worn.

Free parking is available within the club grounds but there is also parking in the adjacent
public car park.

We always look forward to welcoming all players, visitors and potential new members during
the bowls season.
