Disability Bowls Club Celebrates 30 Years

Bowls 'n' Buggies have been meeting at Scarborough Indoor Bowls Centre for over 30 years.

Bowls ‘n’ Buggies is a bowls club for people with a disability which meets every Saturday morning 10-12noon at Scarborough Indoor Sports Centre, and is a registered Charity.

The club was formed in 1991 by Mike Roberts and a group of helpers and people with a disability.  The club has grown in membership, especially during the past few years, and enables people with a disability to enjoy sport every week.

The slightly delayed Bowls ‘n’ Buggies 30 year Anniversary celebrations took place on Saturday 12th November 2022 with a Fun Bowls session, buffet and AGM. 

The activities and meeting enabled everyone to celebrate their achievements of bowling, to thank helpers who come along every week, to show gratitude to community supporters who have provided grants, to welcome new members and invite new Committee members. 

Anyone with a disability interested in joining can come along on Saturday morning to Come and Try bowls.

Bowls ‘n’ Buggies won the 2018 Scarborough & District Sports Award ‘Top Community Sports Club’ and recently one of the bowlers was voted Top Disability Sports Person.

This is the Coast is committed to providing a daily local news service for the Yorkshire Coast. We are a small locally owned and operated business which employs professional journalists and reporters. We do not receive any public funding or grants and we are entirely funded by our local commercial operations. We enjoy fabulous support from local businesses who work with us on their advertising and marketing campaigns, but the cost of providing high quality, well researched, fact checked local news coverage is significant.

If you appreciate what This is the Coast does, and would like to help support our journalism, please consider supporting us on a monthly basis today.

A small contribution from all our readers would really help support independent journalism for the Yorkshire Coast.
