Welcome

Welcome to Walton and District Indoor Bowls Club which is situated in the celebrated seaside town of Walton on the Naze. The Club uses part of the Town Council's superb premises known as the Columbine Centre which also has a full size theatre/gymnasium and refreshment and bar area.


Walton Sea Front & Pier
 

Walton Backwaters
The centre is set back some 200m from the sea front with the Walton Back Waters to the rear of the site. In addition to the ample car park there is a large grassed area where families can relax particularly at high tide.  
 
The relaxed welcoming entrance area to the Centre leads through to the refreshment lounge and the club's four bowling rinks.

The extensive artificial "day light" Iilumination provided to the 35 metre rinks gives a warm welcome to all who use these well run facilities.

The Club is a friendly privately run bowls club with just under 400 members. With a few exceptions, the rinks are in use 13 hours a day and 7 days a week for County matches, club competition, casual play, and coaching.

Refreshment and Bar Area
 
 

Four 35 metre rinks
We have a good number of qualified players to coach new members and umpire matches. The club has enjoyed success since it was founded in 1992 and continues to welcome new members as well as visitors to the area.

A Public Open Day is held each year in mid September for non-players to get a feel for the sport. Many of the members play outside during the summer so the club has two programmes, one for the winter and a lighter one for the summer. Included in the social programme are fun to raise money for charity.

The age group of the membership reflects the area in that it is predominantly retired but the club is planning to expand into other age groups as Indoor bowls is a sport with plenty to offer for all ages and abilities.
