Short Mat

ALL BOWLING INCLUDING SHORT MAT, HAS BEEN POSTPONED UNTIL THE REVIEW DATE OF 2ND DECEMBER 2020.

We may know by that date if we can continue as we have recently.

However, having now been certified with "Safe Bowls Status" from the ESMBA, we have opened up The Club to play with one mat only and up to pairs maximum (4 members max).

So read the documents supplied by the Club's Secretary, agree to abide by the extra COVID-19 rules, check DBC Calendar page of this website and book a session.

Didcot Bowls Club is affiliated to: 

Oxfordshire County Short Mat Bowling Association  www.osmba.org.uk 


For information, email Didcot Bowls Club:           Contact D.B.C.

We play mixed gender teams from October until April.
Most Saturday mornings during the winter seasons, the clubhouse is used for roll-ups (practice).
If you are interested in playing (and maybe joining), drop in between 10am and midday.
