Our club's story
In 1926 our No.1 Green was constructed by miners during the General Strike.
Hollinsend Park Bowls Club was founded in 1932 with a simple idea: to create a welcoming place for everyone to enjoy Crown Green Bowling.
As a proud club in Sheffield, we are committed to nurturing the sport and fostering a strong sense of community.
