🛑 STOP! STOP! 🛑
Why do so many people still think lawn bowls is an "old person's game"?
Why is this mindset still around?
Lawn bowls has evolved into one of the most inclusive, exciting, and fastest-growing sports around. It is a sport for EVERYONE – young and old, beginners and champions, people of all abilities, shapes, sizes, and backgrounds.
Not every child is destined to play rugby, netball, hockey, or cricket. Not every child wants a high-contact sport. But every child deserves the opportunity to belong, to be part of a team, to make friends, and to discover a sport where they can succeed.
Lawn bowls offers exactly that.
✅ Builds confidence and self-esteem
✅ Develops concentration and strategic thinking
✅ Improves coordination and balance
✅ Encourages teamwork and sportsmanship
✅ Creates lifelong friendships
✅ Suitable for all fitness levels
✅ Inclusive of people with disabilities
✅ Low risk of injury compared to many contact sports
✅ Teaches discipline, patience, and respect
✅ Allows players to compete individually or as part of a team
✅ Provides opportunities to represent club, district, province, and even country

For our youth, lawn bowls is more than just a game. It is a place where you are welcomed, valued, and given the chance to grow at your own pace. Whether you dream of competing at the highest level or simply want to have fun with friends, there is a place for you on the green.
Parents, imagine a sport where your child can develop life skills, build confidence, make lasting friendships, and enjoy healthy competition in a positive environment.
The future of lawn bowls belongs to our youth.
