Our history
Hopton Bowls Club has a long and distinguished history and was formed in 1923. Originally based at the Commercial Inn located in the High Street, it faced an uncertain future in 1990 with the closure of the pub. However, a very determined nucleus of players decided that they were not going to let the club go under, so much so that they all contributed £1000 each into a rescue fund.
In a very short space of time the new site was obtained with the help of a sympathetic landowner, and the ‘can do’ members laid out the new green and built the clubhouse, with the club moving onto the site in September 1992.
