What is Bowls?

A Sport For All

What is bowls? Bowls, or Lawn Bowling, is the most inclusive, accessible, and affordable sport available. Everyone, regardless of age or ability, can play bowls.

Similar to curling, bowls is a target sport where the aim of the game is to get closer to a target than your opponent. By rolling balls (called bowls) on a special turf surface, players aim to score more points than their opponents.

Bowls can be played 1-on-1, or as teams. There are various rules and formats (do you want to play to a predetermined score, for a specific amount of time, using 2 bowls or 3 bowls each, etc.), so choose the competition format you like and give it a go! Visit our Events page to learn more.
