Why Choose us for your Bowling?

​

Bowls at our club is a fun, social and a competitive sport. It helps improve physical, mental and social aspects of our lives.

 

We welcome people of all ages and abilities from those who are new to bowling as well as those who are more experienced.

​

Using Indoor bowls to improve your well-being.

​

There are three key reasons why people join an indoor bowling club; To learn a new skill, to have some exercise, and to have some great social interactions with other members.

 

However, there is more to indoor bowls that can help you. So considering indoor bowls for your mental health can offer there are seven benefits for your overall well-being. Here's why:

​

  1. Stress Reduction: Engaging in bowls can provide a therapeutic escape from the stresses of daily life. The rhythmic motion, exercise and focus required can help to calm the mind and reduce stress levels.

  2. Physical Activity: Bowls involve gentle physical activity, which has been shown to release endorphins, the body's natural mood lifters. Regular exercise like bowls can help alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety.

  3. Social Connection: Joining a bowls club with our large social offering provides opportunities for social interaction and community engagement. Building relationships with fellow bowlers can combat feelings of loneliness and isolation, promoting a sense of belonging and support. Eastbourne Borough Indoor Bowls Club have open days and taster session without obligation.

  4. Mental Stimulation: Bowls requires strategic thinking, concentration, and problem-solving skills, which can help keep the mind sharp and engaged. This mental stimulation can improve cognitive function and memory over time.

  5. Sense of Achievement: Mastering the techniques of bowls and achieving personal bests can boost self-esteem and confidence. Setting and achieving goals within the sport can provide a sense of purpose and accomplishment. So choose a Club with qualified coaches to get the best from your early experience of a bowls club.

  6. Easy access: Choose a bowling club with easy access to bowling rinks that you can book at a time you like, whenever you want. A Club that is cost effective and does not charge too much.

  7. Mindfulness Practice: Bowls encourages mindfulness by requiring players to be fully present and focused on the task at hand. Practicing mindfulness in this way can promote relaxation and mental clarity.

​

Incorporating Indoor bowls into your routine can be a valuable addition to your mental health tool kit, offering a combination of physical activity, social connection, and mindfulness that contributes to overall well-being.
