About Bowling

Bowling is a wonderful, incredibly tactical game where everyone in the team plays a vital part.  Getting closest to the "jack" can be achieved in many ways: the skilful draw, a well-weighted "runner", a "chap and lie" and a fast-paced "firing shot" being just some of the options available.  Players should be able to play forehand and backhand equally well and place bowls in anticipation of the jack being moved. 

Here are some links which explain some of the shots available...

Social Membership

Some people just want to watch, relax.. and chat. Bowls is that kind of game! On a sunny day sit yourself down on one of the benches at the end of the green and enjoy the games.

OR... take yourself inside and wet your whistle, taking in the activity from our viewing gallery.
