Coaching

Coaching at Bearsted & Thurnham Bowls Club

Whether you’ve never picked up a bowl before or you’re looking to sharpen your game, our coaching sessions are the perfect way to get started.

Adult Coaching
Thinking of giving bowls a try? You don’t need any experience — just enthusiasm! Our qualified coaches are happy to arrange sessions to suit you.

Junior Coaching
We love welcoming young players aged 8 to 18 into the game. Our junior sessions are fun, supportive, and a great way to build confidence and teamwork skills. Newcomers should be accompanied by an adult on their first visit so we can explain how our junior coaching scheme works and make sure everyone feels right at home.

All coaching is led by fully qualified and DBS-checked coaches, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone.

Accessibility & Equipment
No need to buy anything to start — we have plenty of bowls (or “woods”) you can borrow. Just wear flat-soled shoes and comfortable clothing.
Our club also proudly offers inclusive facilities, including a Bradshaw Bowling Buggy for wheelchair users and accessible toilets, so everyone can enjoy the sport.
