LAWN BOWLING is a precision sport that was banned in England for more than 300 years (until 1845) because it’s just too much fun; a relaxing and social pastime that requires concentration and mental focus; and a game where strategy and psychology are as essential as power and accuracy. Lawn bowling develops your hand-eye coordination, flexibility, and balance. The social aspect also makes it a great stress relief, and it’s a sport you can play for a lifetime. The quirky culture and unique lingo are part of the fun too. Join us on the greens at Cosburn Park—the club where your friends are bowling.
