Visitors and members enjoying Stanwell’s 2024 open day

You don’t have to know the game to enjoy it.

Bowls is easy to understand: deliver your bowls as close as you can to the small white ball, called the jack. The challenge is learning how to get them there.

It’s a game you can enjoy at your own pace, with friendly company along the way. Stanwell welcomes both beginners and existing players looking for a new club.
