About Our Club

Our home is on the south side of town in the local recreation ground situated on Tean Road. (See Cheadle Menu-location). Cheadle itself is roughly equidistant(10 miles or so) from the Potteries conurbation, home to the famous Wedgwood & Royal Doulton wares, amongst others; from Leek, Queen of the Staffordshire Moorlands; Ashbourne, gateway to the famous Dovedale Valley; Uttoxeter, home to the nationally acclaimed racecourse, and, of course, is virtually just down the road from this country's greatest attraction, Alton Towers.

Whilst it is true that we are situated in the Staffordshire Moorlands, the club has strong connections with the Stoke-on-Trent area, having affiliation with the Potteries & District County Bowling Association, the North Staffs Parks & Recreation Bowling Association and the Staffordshire County Ladies Bowling Association. In co-operation with the local Town Council, our facilities currently support twelve competitive teams, encompassing men's, ladies and mixed, together with men's seniors.

We have two crown greens, our No 1 exclusive to club members and used primarily for competition; the No 2 green is for use by the general public upon payment; however, it is also used for club competition and as a general overspill green, by arrangement with the council.
