Good to know

Barefoot bowls, the practical bits.

How many people per rink?+

Clubs allow 8–10 bowlers a rink. Put in your group size and we work out the rinks and the price per person.

Do we need to know how to play?+

No. Most clubs include a quick lesson and all the gear. It takes five minutes to pick up.

What do we wear?+

Bare feet or flat-soled shoes on the green. No heels, no studs.

Can we bring our own drinks?+

Usually not, the clubs are licensed and run a bar. Some let you BYO food for the BBQ. It's on each club's page.
