Living Life To Its Fullest - Bowls NZ & Bowling Clubs

Become a Member of your local Bowling Club

The great thing about bowls is no matter your physical capabilities, no matter your age, you can still participate in this great sport.

Bowls is a sport you can learn in minutes, yet its subtleties and nuances always create excitement and challenges for all. Bowls is what you make of it, whatever you need. As you move into the golden years you don’t have to give up participating in sport, Bowls allows you to continue to enjoy the challenge of competition, the thrill of participating with your friends, the ability to be active.

Mr Brown explains his experiences with Bowls. “I started playing later in life, I had been active all my life and wanted to keep getting out of the house, I am not one of those people who has one foot in the grave, so I made a decision and turned up to the local bowling Club one afternoon, it was a fantastic experience. I was greeted and shown around, people welcomed me, took the time to teach me how to play and now I couldn’t imagine life without the friends and activity that comes with playing and being a part of the club.

Our bowling clubs create an environment for social interaction, for the chance to meet with friends, to enjoy the facilities and be active.  By becoming a member of one of our clubs or simply playing in our casual tournaments and events you link into a community of people who are bringing vibrancy and passion to life. The great thing is first year members generally get large discounts on membership to ensure you have the chance to try this great sport.

“Once I retired I didn’t know what to do with myself. It wasn’t till a dear friend invited me to her local bowling club that I found a passion I never knew I had. It was such a different environment to what I imagined, there was so much going on at the bowling club that I quickly found myself one of the regulars. I am not a great bowler, I just love the people, having the chance to sit and talk with friends, having a laugh playing the game. It’s really helped keep me going.” Mrs. Johns.
