Milnshaw: Winter bowls




Due to the amount of local interest, crown green bowlers will once again be provided with a bowling green throughout the winter months, so the more hardy members of the bowls community can continue to participate in the sport they enjoy all year round. Using a bowling green in the winter months prevents it being used during the first half of the summer bowling season, so necessary renovation work can take place to keep the green in good condition. As Milnshaw Park has two bowling greens the second green is used for winter bowling. This will allow bowlers from across the borough the play in winter and will help protect the condition of summer greens.

Anyone who wishes to play winter bowls at Milnshaw Park will need to apply for a winter bowls pass from the Parks Service based at Willows Lane Depot by ringing the Sports Pitch Booking line on 01254 356 265 or ‘silver surfers’ can request a pass via email pitchbookings@hyndburnbc.gov.uk . As with the summer bowling the winter bowls passes are also free of charge, as part of the Active People Initiative.
