How a good website can benefit your club

A client says that their website has helped with their funding efforts. The club has received a letter from the Bowls Development Alliance (BDA), supporting the club’s application for funding to assist in the renovation of their club pavilion. The BDA comments included:

“The club committee and members showed a real desire and commitment to bring about changes and look at new ways of doing things. One such example is the development of a brand-new website which could rival any sports clubs in design and content, showcasing bowls as an inclusive sport for all, and therefore attracting a much broader audience from its modernised and easily accessible online presence. … As an organisation itself funded by Sport England, we whole heartedly support their application …”

bowlsclub.info ‘II’ released

Welcome to the new www.bowlsclub.info!

Sep 2017: This site has been providing links to bowls related websites since 2002, and it was well overdue for a makeover!
This all-new site has been rebuilt with WordPress to bring the technology up to date, and to ensure a ‘responsive’ site that can be viewed on mobile phones, tablets and PCs.

Not all bowls sites are good at getting themselves listed by Google, so hopefully this site makes them easier to find for everyone.
