This private members' club, formed in 1983, caters for Short Mat Bowls in the winter and for Outdoor Bowls (EBA) in the summer. The club is housed in a modern and comfortable pavilion whose facilities include a fully-licensed members' bar. The pavilion contains two mats for the Short Mat section. Outdoors the main facility is the full-sized six-rink bowling green maintained to high standards. With effect from 24 April 2004, the Club has been registered by the Inland Revenue as a Community Amateur Sports Club (CASC).

There are currently 122 members who pay annual subscriptions as follows:

             Under State Retirement Pension age         £30.00

The club is open, for Short Mat or Outdoor Bowls as appropriate, for seven days a week. The bowls available comprise purely friendly internal matches, internal leagues and other competitions, and a wide variety of friendly and competitive matches against other clubs. In the summer touring teams from other parts of the country are often entertained and the club also hosts Norfolk county matches from time to time.

Very family-oriented, the club prides itself on a friendly social atmosphere and holds a regular programme of social functions (dinners, parties, quizzes, theatre trips, seaside trips etc).

New members, for whom coaching is available, are always welcomed by this leading Attleborough Sports Club. People new to the area will find the Connaught Bowls Club, with its wide mix of local members, a good introduction to the town of Attleborough itself. The club is situated at Station Road, Attleborough, NR17 2AS.
