Welcome to the 2026 season, and Happy New Year to all.

We will be starting the outdoor bowling season on Sunday the 26th April this year (subject to permission from the greenkeepers).

CGBC - The home of Lawn Bowls in central Guildford

We are lucky to play on a green situated in Guildford's beautiful and award winning Castle Grounds, as the bowling green attracts many thousands of visitors every year from all over the world. Bowling in this wonderful setting epitomises a scene that is typically British, especially when accompanied by a brass band on the nearby bandstand.

Our club is affiliated  to Bowls England, Bowls Surrey and WSBA.

Anyone joining the club is assured a warm welcome, whether they are experienced bowlers or wishing to try their hand at this wonderful game. We welcome all ages (over 16 please) and all physical and mental abilities.  Our Safeguarding Officer is Nicky Secrett

The Club membership fees are as follows:

Full membership: £80 per year (halved for novices in the first year of membership)

Social membership: £10 per year (this allows bowling by invitation only)

Junior membership: under 18s - £10 per year
