St John's (Meads) Bowling Club is a flat green bowling club with six rinks founded in 1936, with a current membership of 44; 17 ladies and 27 men. The club is affiliated to Sussex County Bowls and is an Associate Member of Bowls England.

St John's (Meads) Bowling Club is situated in The Helen Garden high on the seafront, two kilometers west of the Eastbourne Pier and just yards from the spectacular chalk cliffs.  It is a short distance from the world famous beauty spot, Beachy Head.  The glorious views from the green, out across the English Channel, are arguably the best from any bowling green in the UK.  If you want "bowls with a view" then St John's is the club for you.

Playing mainly mixed matches, we have a comprehensive fixture list against local clubs and entertain touring teams from various parts of the UK. The club runs competitions throughout the summer and bowlers of all levels are encouraged to take part.  In addition there are organised or informal roll-ups on most non match days which we regard as an important part of our club activities, helping to maintain the friendly atmosphere for which the club is renowned.
