REDCAR BOROUGH PARK BOWLING CLUB

CLUB HISTORY

The original Redcar Borough Park B.C. was a men only club playing on council greens and operating from accommodation within Borough Park. It is now an amalgamation of the original club and bowlers from the Redcar East Community Association. The present clubhouse was built in the 1980's on land that the members had the foresight to purchase from Redcar Racecourse. The four rink indoor facility was added in 1996 with the help of a grant of some 45% of the cost from the English Sports Council Lottery Fund.
The club continues to be run on an almost entirely voluntary basis which is a tribute to the hard work and dedication of a number of the members. By developing the way it has, the club has tried to retain a family atmosphere and become an integral part of the community which can be enjoyed by both bowlers and social members on an equal basis.
Improvements made in recent years include a new car park, c.c.tv upgrade, a new indoor bowling carpet, toilet refurbishments, an automatic irrigation system and perimeter fencing for the outdoor greens.

A legacy from twice former President Harry Aspland enabled the club to purchase a computer based information system and two memorial benches.
