Dailly Bowling Club

The Dailly Bowling Club is a cherished local institution that offers a welcoming environment for both seasoned bowlers and newcomers.

Established with a rich history, the club features a meticulously maintained green that provide the perfect setting for both competitive matches and friendly games.

Members of the club enjoy not only the sport itself but also the strong sense of community and camaraderie it fosters.

Regular events, tournaments, and social gatherings make the Dailly Bowling Club a vibrant hub of activity, promoting relaxation, skill development, and lasting friendships among its members.

Apart from the war years and the two years during Covid, Dailly Bowling club has been an active concern and a focus for village bowlers since 1885.

Dailly Bowling Club is one of South Ayrshires oldest bowling clubs and over the years more than a few players have reached national level competitions.

The club continues to thrive despite concerns from other clubs about decreasing interest in the game and, consequently, a decreasing number of players joining clubs.

Dailly bowling club has around 45 playing members and 141 social members.

Social membership is only £20/year, while playing membership ranges from £55-£60/year, depending on the age of the person.

Considering the club has entertainment nearly every month this represents a true bargain.

Anyone interested in joining the club either as a player or social member can contact any member of the committee or just go down to the club and speak to a committee member.

Visitors from outside of the village can be signed in by a club member.

Most Sundays the club runs either a Pool or Dominoes tournament. This has also turned out to be a family’s day.  Parents can bring their children, but are always asked, since it is a busy day, to keep their wee ones under control.
