Welcome to the President's Page


PRESIDENT’S PAGE FOR 2026 SEASON



My name is Jane Colebrook-Taylor, and I would like to thank you all for electing me as your President for the next two years. I will do my best to ensure that Bognor Bowls continues to be a happy and friendly Club. This Club is more than just a place to play bowls – it is a community and a source of friendship and mutual support for so many of us.


We must continue to try and recruit more members, in particular younger members who can take the Club forward with new ideas, whilst hopefully retaining some of the traditions of the Club. During the coming season my aim is simply to uphold our traditions and encourage any fresh ideas that will help our Club to grow and thrive. I want to see our greens filled with laughter, friendly competition and the spirit of sportsmanship that makes bowls so special. We will work together to make any new members welcome and to ensure that every member feels included.


The Charity for my term of office will continue to be Sage House, Tangmere, which offers support, advice and activities for people living with dementia, and your continued support throughout the season will be much appreciated. Last year we contributed an amount of more than £1,000. Through their Christmas Double-Up Appeal, the gift was doubled to +£2,000 by Sage House match fund champions.


I look forward to seeing you all on the greens at Waterloo Square and would like to wish you all a happy and successful bowling season.



Jane Colebrook-Taylor
