CORPORATE EVENTS
event backup
Corporate Group (Barefoot Bowls) or Business Team building events? – Of course! The cost of hiring the club for bowls is $15 per person which includes games of bowls, hire bowls, tuition to get you started and use of the club. As much as possible your event will be the only event on at the club for the duration that you are booked for.
If weather intervenes and bowling is not possible but the function or team building program still proceeds we reduce the cost to $7 per person. Generally events with bowls and food last at least 3 hours. There are also 1 hour and 2 hour bowling only price options.
Usually there is a small percentage of attendees who don’t bowl unless there are directives by the management or teams are preselected. When teams are preselected there might be an elimination structure with playoff finals and prizes as encouragement.
CATERING
We don’t provide food on site but allow you to self cater inc disposable plates etc. Drinks must be purchased at the club. We can recommend Chargrill Charlies of High St Willoughby (9958 4094 ask for Peter or Manfred) who have a wide range of menus and price ranges and supply events at the Club regularly. Dial up Pizza is also a simple option – try Crust at Willoughby 9417 7755. For antipasto platters or cooked Italian style dishes try Quattro Deli in Chatswood Chase 9411 8800. Or you may have your own preferred caterer. Some groups bring nibbles etc if not wanting an extensive meal.
DRINKS
Drinks can not be brought on to the site – they must be purchased from the club. We normally run a bar tab for this type of event, however you can have individual sale.
