The White Rock Lawn Bowling Club is one of White Rock’s oldest and most treasured sporting institutions. Our facilities are situated in a quiet location on the corner of Dolphin and Royal and has been promoting the game of lawn bowls in the local population for over 90 years.

Originally inaugurated back in 1934 with a natural grass playing surface, the club switched to an artificial one in 2008 with the introduction of a special synthetic carpet imported from the UK. The 2008 carpet was replaced with a new carpet in 2021.

The main advantage of this artificial surface is that it enables the club to operate year-round; a traditional grass green is only available during the summer months.   It is also much more economic as the maintenance costs are significantly lower than for grass.

The carpet provides the club with a high-class surface to bowl on. This will mean better instruction and training for new bowlers who are essential for the continued success and growth of this amazing community asset.

The club has been an oasis offering peace and tranquility year round in a friendly social atmosphere – so important in the stressful times that have prevailed recently during covid.

The club has an active membership of over 150 persons providing sporting and social facilities.  The club benefits from a wide range of bowling experience from novices through to tournament bowlers competing in provincial and national events.

After a fun afternoon on the green with your fellow bowlers you can repair to the well-appointed clubhouse and enjoy a drink and a chat with your newfound friends.

Lawn bowling is a game for all ages and all seasons. Lawn bowling is a think game – you always have to think one shot ahead of your opponend. It is full of fun and fierce but friendly competition depending on the level at which you wish to play the game. Lawn bowling keeps the mind and body active and leads to strong and lasting friendships at any level of participation.
