Among the members at the well attended dinner were five of the founding members who are Gill Bunn, Pat Bunn, Alan Bunn, Pat Williamson and Mervyn Williamson. The club currently plays in the Bure League and the Tens League, both recognised leagues of the Norfolk County Short Mat Bowls Association. Hevingham were founder members of the now defunct Wensum League and Thurne Leagues when five new leagues were formed for the 1989/1990 season. They won the Thurne League title four times and the Wensum League title three times in 1999, 2000 & 2006. They also won the Wensum Cup in 2003 & 2008. They joined the Bure League when it was formed in 1993 and won the league title in 2001 & 2007 and the Bure Cup in 2007. They were also founder members of the Tens League in 1998 and won the championship title in 2003. Hevingham used to play in the NCSMBA Summer League and won the Division One title in both 1993 & 2004.
