Our Dedicated Members Are the Driving Force
​
Many of our members offer their time and expertise to ensure the club runs smoothly. A committee manages the affairs of the club according to its constitution, the Laws of the Sport of Bowls, and Bowls England rules and regulations.
Much of the work to establish the green and clubhouse has been carried out by members, who come from all walks of life with varied skills and experience. Although advice from professional firms is often sought to make sure we're doing things correctly, our members roll up their sleeves and step up to do the bulk of the work, building teamwork and camaraderie while keeping costs down.
​
We are extremely grateful to the volunteers for fulfilling the many different tasks that need to be done, so that residents of Tetbury and local parishes have an opportunity to enjoy the wonderful sport of lawn bowls.
