​Who Are We?

We are a friendly and informal club (with a proud history)  for players of all standards and ages: from teens to tottering.

Our bowling green is a hidden gem in the heart of Muswell Hill, a perfect place to enjoy a summer drink at our bar and gently roll the woods in friendly and competitive matches.

Our season runs from May to September. ​Playing and social members are welcome. Details of forthcoming friendly and competition fixtures are in the Calendar on the Competitions page here and in the regularly updated fixtures list here.

We wear casual clothes and soft flat shoes except for weekend fixtures when we wear the traditional all white, or for a mid-week match, a white top and grey skirt/trousers .​

And if you are playing in competitive games then please check out  the rules of the game and our common sense and common courtesy etiquette guide here.


​The Clubhouse and Bar

All playing and social members are entitled to use the clubhouse and bar when open. Additionally guests  may accompany members into the clubhouse.

Club Nights - Tuesdays and Fridays  from 5.30pm 
Roll ups and an open bar


​Please help out whenever possible by getting rid of rubbish and bringing glasses back to the bar ( ideally  into the dishwasher after use). We are all volunteers helping to run the Club..

​PRENTICE CUP - Quarter Finalists

Muswell Hill came second in the qualifying league.  However we came up short in our quarter final; losing at home by 2 points, and away by two points (despite having led into every end).
​

CORNISH CUP: MHBC Runners Up

​ Well we pulled out all the stops in the final game, won on both rinks by handsome margins and gained six points, but the final result was not in our hands; and North London also won by six points to win the League with Muswell Hill one point behind in second place.

​FNLBA President's Cup
​Lovely, friendly game on Sunday but we lost to a very consistent Potters Bar side - the  current holders.

Prentice (Tuesday evenings)
Played Cockfosters (our league leaders) on Tuesday July 28th. Won at home; lost away but they won on aggregate scores. Great excitement at home when on the final end we won by four woods to finish one shot up!

(Latest  table for our sector below as of 28 June.)

   Cornish Cup
This week (the 21st July) we travelled to Broomfield and won on both rinks. Richard Toby and John won convincingly on the first rink; Wendy Liam and Peter O eventually came through as darkness was falling to win well on the other one.

We should be table toppers now!

​
Bertie Joel
We managed to put out three triples at home for a lovely match with local rivals North London. We lost on two of the three rinks but there were only a few shots in it.
