22.01.2022 Hello Friends. Nothing on so lets enjoy this old game from Warilla of the 2007 world cup final between Henry v Kerkow.

22.01.2022 Congratulations to H. Williams, N. Gabrielsen, and J. Reynolds on taking out this year's Triples title on 27th September, defeating T. Proctor, M. Dulihanty, and J. Freeman. After cold and windy weather for the earlier games on Saturday the conditions were close to ideal for the Final on Sunday morning. Well done all players.

21.01.2022 Well done Queanbeyan. Looking forward to playing there more often.

21.01.2022 Regrettably, the Women's Match Committee has decided to cancel the Canberra Bowling Club Sports Day scheduled for Wednesday, 26 August 2020. The current COVID-19 arrangements restrict the number of people allowed in the Club to just 36 and with no easing of restrictions in sight, it is considered not viable to hold the event at this time. We look forward to welcoming you to an exciting Sports Day next year. Thank you for your support.

21.01.2022 Great day had by teams from far and wide. Crookwell and Goulburn teams along with Weston Creek, Canberra, and Belconnen had not only fantastic weather to enjoy but great bowling by all teams with Tie Breaks making the difference. Congratulations to the 2 Final winners.

20.01.2022 Mixed results for our ladies and gents in the ACT Triples held over this past weekend with our women’s teams being eliminated in R1 and R2. Fortunately one of our men’s teams in Tonkin, Charker and O’Shaughnessy have progressed to the semi finals this Saturday at 0930. If you have nothing to do this Saturday, get on down to Canberra Bowling club and watch some high quality bowls.

20.01.2022 Don’t forget to get your name down for the Christmas Carnival. Single entry or Pairs. The weather looks like it might be kinder this year. A great way to burn off some of those extra kilos gained over the Christmas period, or just a break from sitting around.

20.01.2022 Congratulation to L. Water and M. Bannerman on taking out this year's Club Pairs title. After a very close game, Lois and Mina were triumphant against B. Fardell and G. Young 23-19. Well done all players.

20.01.2022 Round 8 - 22nd March teams for Men's Pennants. Keep up the great bowling teams.
