Six rinks will normally be available for competitive play during all playing sessions, subject to the following rules on allocation of rinks.
Casual play is possible if rinks are available, subject to allocation rules below. A member may book and use a rink for casual play, but must give way to higher priority matches as required.
Allocation of Rinks:
Specific rinks cannot be booked on the Online Booking System, you should select the highest slot available and the priority on the day/time is given from Slot 1 down.
Rink precedence is to be given to matches in the following order:
- Club Hosted Events.
- National Competitions.
- County Competitions.
- League and District Competitions.
- Club Competitions.
- Internal Club Leagues.
- Roll-ups, Spoon Drives and Coaching.
Please note that Rinks 1 to 6 are dedicated to the bowls green. Rink 12 is for Petanque.
