Only Regulation footwear must be worn whilst on the bowling green. Please refrain from jumping, twisting or any action which may cause damage to the carpet. Shoes must be changed to go outside, and changed back again before stepping onto the bowling surface. Do not arrive in your bowls shoes – change into them once inside the building.

Dress shall be predominately white above the waist for all league matches and competitions. Failure to comply will lead to elimination from the competition. Predominately white above the waist will apply for all evening sessions Mon-Fri and all day Saturdays and Sundays.

The dress rule also applies to the Summer Leagues and competitions.

Members are not allowed to play in denim jeans, tracksuit bottoms, or vests at any time. Only tailored shorts may be worn in the summer months.

With the exception of Friendly Matches only, all players in teams representing the club shall be required to wear a club shirt (men, ladies & juniors). These can be purchased at the bar.

Please note that the very latest Club Shirt (with sponsor’s logo) is for club representative/team use only and cannot be worn in League matches.

The wearing of the previous (older) design of club shirts is permitted in League matches

Bottles of oil and any other substance used for grip that may leave marks on the carpet are definitely not allowed.

All bags must be left in the changing rooms. Bags must not be left at the end of the rinks – This constitutes a Health & Safety hazard.

We operate a no smoking policy and smoking is forbidden inside the club. This includes the doorways/entrance lobby. Members are reminded to change footwear if going outside and to change footwear again before entering onto the playing surface.

Play will commence at the car park end of the green. Bowls must be carried and not bowled to the starting end.

The hand rails have been fitted to assist members entering and leaving the playing surface over the bank. Please use the rails to reduce the risk of tripping when entering and alighting the green.

All green fees must be paid at the bar before commencement of the session. A score card will be issued for league and competition matches.

Players wishing to play a roll-up should, upon arrival, enter their name(s) on the Rink Board (behind Rink 2) and must remain in the Club having done so. It is recommended that members check the availability of roll-up rinks by telephone on (01522) 526237 prior to setting off to avoid a wasted journey.

Players must enter their own name only on the Rink Board.

Players already playing in a session are not allowed to enter their names on the Rink Board for a roll-up session immediately following. If however, roll up rinks are not full, they may continue to play.

Roll-ups can be booked for one hour, but only if players are not preventing other members booking for two hours.

Two rinks will be specifically allocated to Roll-Ups at 12:30pm one day a week.

All visitors (including member’s partners or family) may only be signed into the Club on two occasions during a year. After this they must become Social Members as per the Club rules.

Mobile phones must be switched off whilst on the bowling green, and must not be used in close proximity to the greens.

Lincoln & District indoor bowling club fully accepts it’s legal and moral obligations to exercise a duty of care and to protect all children and vulnerable adults participating in it’s activities, and to safeguard their welfare.

Our Policy shall be reviewed annually and be displayed on the Club Notice Board.

Please have regard for fellow bowlers including those on adjacent rinks by observing the following:

1. Stand Still at the head
2. Walk down the centre of the rink when changing ends
3. Consider the bowler on the mat when walking past the ends of the green or down the centre walk ways
4. Stand behind the head when your opponent is on the mat
5. Mind the bowls when a player fires!

Some general hints for members:

1. Do not leave valuables unsecured in your car, or at the ends of the rinks. Bowlers are responsible for their own personal property.
2. Cycles should be secured in the facility provided – the key is available at the bar
3. If you spot anything unusual (e.g. persons or workmen unattended, strangers using toilets) please inform a member of staff immediately.

Regular Fire Drills will be called without notice and members are expected to comply with such practices as required.

Members should be aware of the evacuation procedure in case of emergency (fire etc). This is published on the notice boards at the club but to reiterate:

• If you discover a fire or smoke, raise the alarm immediately
• Upon hearing the continuous warning alarm vacate the premises by the nearest fire exit door.
• Do not stop to collect personal belongings
• Assemble in the car park to the rear of the building.
• Do not leave this area until a roll-call of players, spectators and staff has been conducted.
• Staff have been briefed on checking rooms within the building prior to evacuation and use of fire extinguishers where it is safe to do so.

Annual Membership subscriptions become due on 1^st January each and every calendar year, regardless of the date members originally joined. Members paying before the due date will receive a discount – watch the notice boards for full details.

Captains should ensure that all members of their team(s) have paid their club subscriptions. Any team found to have fielded an ineligible player will have points and shots deducted.

All Club members are reminded that when visiting other Clubs they are acting as a representative of this Club. As such they are expected to conduct themselves in such a manner as to uphold the reputation of Lincoln & District Indoor Bowling Club. Other club members and their staff should at all times be treated with the same courtesy and respect that is expected within these premises.
