In honour of and in memory of Gordon Fletcher who sadly passed away recently, the annual Gordon Fletcher Open Triples Trophy will now be The Gordon Fletcher Open Triples Memorial Trophy. R.I.P Gordon.
We play all through Summer!
Ferryhill Indoor Bowls Club has four great rinks and a very comfortable viewing platform with modern furnishings. Refreshments and drinks are on hand so you'll enjoy watching as much as you enjoy playing. You can even do a bit of both and double your fun.
We welcome Competitive and Social Bowlers
For the competitive among you Ferryhill takes part in many National and County competitions. Our internal club leagues run daily, including weekends so there's plenty to get involved in.
But winning is not everything, not by far. We're not 'dog eat dog' at Ferryhill. We're open and friendly. We're renown throughout the County for our friendly and welcoming environment. So if you just want to get out, to meet new people and chat with friends, there's a warm and welcome place waiting for you at Ferryhill Indoor Bowls Club. Just come along one night, you'll see!
Membership is just £10.00 and Rink fees just £3.00 per session. Ferryhill Leisure Centre's legendary bar is on hand with cheap pints and friendly staff.
So come along and make a night of it. You'll be very welcome.

It was an emotional moment on a night when drinks were plentiful so not surprising Steven's camera prowess was a bit shaky but the image says it all, including the blur... Even Frank Snaith, presenting, had a tear in his eye.
Great to see you Norman, hope you enjoy the whisky and we'll keep you to that promise to keep popping in.
After Norman's jig to 'Simply the Best', a couple of other smoothies moved in... The girls have got no chance!
In view, June Cadman, Arthur Cadman, Yvonne Cook, Ray Laing and Margaret Richardson.
WINNERS
Congratulations to Bill Routledge's team from Durham (left to right, G Alderson, M Robinson & W Routledge)
Unbeaten in the round robin stages, they then went on to knock out Ferryhill's own Keith Seymour's unbeaten squad to take the title and the biggest money pot.

CORONAVIRUS UPDATE
25 JUNE 2020
Not the update you or I wanted but needs must and so Ferryhill Indoor Bowls Club (like all indoor bowls clubs) needs to remain closed for the time being.
We are receiving regular updates from the EIBA. They and we, were hoping to be able to accommodate a minimal opening on 4th July when the pubs are allowed to open. Alas though, clubs such as ours are not included in the Governments early stage opening plans.
Rest assured though that we are still working to make sure we can open as soon and as safely as possible. We are currently working through a long list of guidelines from the EIBA detailing measures we can take to ensure member safety.
We'll make sure we have those measures in place so that when the Government say we can, we are ready and can get back to bowls while making sure we do everything we can to keep you all safe.
I'll keep you updated here and on Facebook as things progress. In the meantime keep safe and keep on enjoying life.
Ken Gill
