Riverain Outdoor Bowls Club is a thriving club with over 50 active members, based in Hitchin, Hertfordshire.
The club is located behind the Riverain Indoor club and operates independently from it.
The outdoor club has its own clubhouse with facilities to provide sandwiches, tea and biscuits for visiting clubs.
Our recently constructed separate changing rooms have enabled us to open more space within the club house itself.
During the season we have a number of internal competitions, including a Wednesday roll-up league,
and take part in a number of friendly matches with other clubs.
The club also takes part in local competitions. These include:
The
Stevenage Village League
,
Cairns Cup,
L&D BA
and others.
The club also has an active social side.
Apart from regular gala days, our candlelit bowls evenings and other light-hearted bowling events,
there are a number of social events throughout the year.
Racing nights, Quiz nights and occasional trips to the dogs.
New members are always welcome.
