The pavilion was built a little later in 1932.<\/p>\n<p>The club took over the maintenance and management of the existing bowling facilities within the park in 2007 under an agreement with High Peak Borough Council.<\/p>\n<p>The club boasts two well maintained bowling greens together with a neat clubhouse and provides a warm and friendly bowling environment that is fully affiliated to the British Crown Green Bowling Association.<\/p>\n<p>The position of the greens and clubhouse within the park surrounded as they are by mature trees and (in the summer) beautiful flower beds provides an ideal location to play (and watch) the game of crown green bowling.<\/p>\n<p>We offer bowling for people of all ages and levels of skill. Teenagers to pensioners, beginners to those with various levels of previous bowling experience.<\/p>\n<p>The club currently has 85 members and we are happy to offer friendly advice and guidance to both new and existing fellow members. We are however always looking to encourage new people to join the club as either full or social members. It&#8217;s great value being a member as it costs only \u00a330 per year for those of you wishing to play in one or more of the local bowling leagues, or \u00a320 per year if you just want to play socially throughout the season.<\/p>\n<p>The club has teams that compete in a number of local bowling leagues throughout the bowling season within the week and at weekends. This offers the ideal environment as a full member for those looking to undertake a level of competitive sport.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bowling Leagues<br \/>\n<\/strong>North Derbyshire League &#8211; High Peak Mixed Pairs &#8211; Tuesday evening at 7 pm (2 teams)<br \/>\nNorth Derbyshire North National League &#8211; Vets &#8211; Thursday 2 pm<br \/>\nNorth Derbyshire Wednesday League &#8211; Wednesday evening at 7 pm<br \/>\nLongdendale Mens Crown Green Bowling League &#8211; Saturday 2 pm (2 teams)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bowlingmanorpark.co.uk\/?page_id=32\">Click here <\/a>for more information on the above leagues.<br \/>\n<strong>Email<\/strong>: \u00a0<a href=\"mailto:bowlingmanorpark@yahoo.com\">bowlingmanorpark@yahoo.com<\/a> for further information about the club.<\/p>\n<p>Newcomers to the sport of crown green bowling are particularly welcome. To get you started introductory and training sessions are held most Sunday and Tuesday mornings throughout the bowling season. Equipment and bowls can be provided at these sessions so that you can try out the sport (and the club) to see if you like it (we think you will).<\/p>\n<p>The availability of two greens allows the club to offer from time to time green rental for social events and also to offer casual bowling to non members at weekend.\u00a0 These give non bowlers an opportunity to try out the game for a very modest outlay.<\/p>\n<p>Besides the team and social bowling the club organises club competitions throughout the bowling season that are open to all club members. Trophies can be won at these events which are great fun and enjoyed by all members.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bowlingmanorpark.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Constitution-Manor-Park-Bowling-November-2022.pdf\">Click here <\/a>to download a copy of the approved Club Constitution.
