Our facilities include three greens, safe parking, gate access, neat clubhouse, rest rooms, braai facilities and a well stocked bar. Bowls or lawn bowls is a sport in which the objective is to roll biased balls so that they stop close to a smaller ball called a "jack" or "kitty". It is normally played outdoors (although there are many indoor venues) and the outdoor surface is natural grass.

💚 OLD OAK PROUD! 💚

What an incredibly special moment for our club as six of our own Old Oak bowlers have been selected to represent Western Province against Boland on 6 December 2026.

🔹 Louis Botha – Men’s Open A Side
🔹 Nicky Crawford – Men’s B Side

🔹 Wally Brown – Men’s Veterans
🔹 Marianna Kirsten – Ladies’ B Side

🔹 Cheryl Downing – Ladies’ Veterans
🔹 Elsa van der Westhuyzen – Ladies’ Disas

This is so much more than a selection — it is a wonderful reflection of the talent, commitment, perseverance and passion that these bowlers bring to the greens every time they play.

Behind every selection are early mornings, hours of practice, tough games, countless bowls, and the determination to keep improving. To see that hard work rewarded with a place on the provincial stage is something our entire Old Oak family can be incredibly proud of.

Louis, Nicky, Wally, Marianna, Cheryl and Elsa — congratulations! You have earned this opportunity, and we are absolutely thrilled to see you representing both Western Province and our beloved Old Oak.

Take those winning attitudes with you, play your hearts out, enjoy every moment and, most importantly, remember that your club is behind you all the way!

We are proud of you. We are cheering for you. And we cannot wait to see you shine!

Good luck, champions! 💚🤍

CONGRATS TO OUR VERY OWN WALLY BROWN!

We are absolutely delighted to congratulate Wally Brown on retaining his place in the Western Province Men’s Veteran Inter District team for 2027! 👏🏆

Being selected is an achievement. Retaining your place among the best veteran players in the province is something else entirely. It speaks volumes about Wally’s consistency, dedication, competitive spirit and the quality of bowls he continues to deliver.

Wally has been a fantastic ambassador for Old Oak, and we couldn’t be prouder to see him representing Western Province once again.

Congratulations, Wally!
