Upton Victory Hall Bowling Club
The ‘Bowling and Indoor Games Club’ is one of the original constituent clubs of the Upton Victory Hall which has, since 1919, been such a feature of the Parish of Upton. The Club benefits from the shared services of a full time groundsman who has created a green which is considered by us, and our visiting teams, as the finest in the area.
Facilities
We have our own comfortable clubroom with kitchen and cloakroom facilities and a licensed bar. Floodlighting is available when required and there are covered viewing areas.
Play Programme
The Club has a very active programme of social bowls, in-house competitions and local League Matches.
League match schedule
Currently, two teams play in the evening Birkenhead League, one in the Wallasey League, and one in the North Wirral League. Additionally, three teams participate in the Birkenhead Afternoon League. The number of matches to be played ensures that anyone interested in team playing is assured of opportunities.

This highly successful and popular annual tournament will again be held at the Club in September 2018. Thirty-two players, sixteen pairs, start off in the morning and are gradually knocked out leading to a play off between the two remaining pairs. Entries will be welcome from all ages, both male and female.
