Gateshead Indoor Bowls Club

Welcome to GIBC

Welcome to Gateshead Indoor Bowling Club, established in 1975. Our membership is in excess of 375.
In 2015 the members took on the club by asset transfer from local council and we became a Charitable Incorporated Organisation, run entirely by volunteers.
We welcome all bowlers either experienced or new - with qualified coaches to assist. There is a full programme of leagues - men’s, ladies and mixed. We are continually looking to improve our facilities and have many plans for the future.
