Hexham Elvaston Bowling Club
Welcome!
Welcome to the website of
Hexham Elvaston Bowling Club
in Northumberland.
With the new year perhaps you feel you want to get out and get active. Bowls is a great way of doing that as well as make new friendships. The green will be opening in April with Saturday morning sessions to give bowls a try. They are free with no commitment. Except we think you'll like it and want to join the club! With free coaching and lots of encouragement it really is worth a try. Keep your eyes peeled for details of when we are opening and when the free sessions will be taking place.
Scroll through a selection of photos from our Presentation of Cups on the final day of the 2025 season including the presentation of Lifetime Membership of the Club to Keith Woods who served as chairman for many years and is a past president. One or two cup-winning members were unable to be present on the day.

Members of Chrysalis with their helpers, friends and family visited Elvaston on a perfect late summer morning to give bowls a try. Christina welcomed the party, and Mike showed them the ropes before they got to bowl. Each person who took part did exceptionally well and gained a new experience as well as enjoying the sun, friendship, encouragement and refreshments.
