Lawn bowls is an inexpensive sport that anyone can play, regardless of age, gender, or ability. It's easy to learn and can be as relaxed or as competitive as you want to make it.

In lawn bowls, the target is a small white ball called the 'jack'. Bowls finishing closest to the jack score a point each. Lawn bowls are rolled, not tossed, towards the jack. Bowls are about the size of a 5 pin bowling ball, but not fully round; therefore when rolled, bowls follow a curved path towards the jack.

WHEN WE PLAY

Our bowling season starts on the last Saturday in April and continues to the end of September.

Play times are:

• 12:30 pm on Saturdays. There is no open bowling on Sundays as Sundays are reserved for scheduled competitions and visitations with other clubs.

•   6:30 pm on weekdays until mid August when the start time changes to 6:00 pm due to it getting dark earlier

A game of bowls consists of 10 or 12 ends and is approximately one and a half hours long. Please arrive at least 15 minutes before the game's start time in order to perform the draw for the game.
