Overview of Bowls in Zone 9 (Sydney Northern District Bowling Association)
Bowls in Zone 9 is played by 26 clubs from North Sydney & Manly in the South, Turramurra in the West, Avalon Beach in the East and Asquith in the North West. All of these clubs play competitive bowls but also have social bowlers and of course Barefoot bowlers are always welcome.
There are a variety of competitions on offer to players at all levels at both Club and Zone level, plus state and national events are played throughout the course of the year.
In New South Wales, we have strong representative pathways for players to compete in. We have tenacious representation of both city and country players. Bowls NSW have representation at junior, under twenty five, opens and senior competitions conducted nationally. Many of our players, coaches and managers move on to represent Australia with the national body.
Bowls has also seen a shift from competitive bowling pathways to a social bowling framework. Whilst there has always been a strong social bowling culture, the introduction of ‘barefoot’ bowls provides greater opportunities for participation and this is reflected across Australia.
The bowling clubs are the facilities that host the sport. These locations can be found all over the state and support your bowling experiences. They are wanting you to participate and they do have people ready to welcome you and get you involved.
Bowls is a sport that provides great companionship, gamesmanship and competition. It can be played on equal terms by almost everyone. Bowls is a sport for all ages, from the young bowler through to adult bowlers. It doesn’t require special strength or athletic ability. You can be any body shape or size and is inclusive of disability athletes.
Bowls is known for the great spirit with which the game should be played. Get in the spirit of bowls and see where it can take you.
Love what you play, it’s more than a game.
