Register your club now for Bowls Month

by Team BV

Register your club to be part of Play Bowls Month. During the month of October, bowls clubs throughout Victoria have the opportunity to participate in Bowls Month, Bowls Victoria’s state-wide participation campaign, which aims to link new and lapsed participants with your club.

Participation initiatives like these are vital for the growth of Bowls to attract new blood to clubs. Bowls Month is an excellent opportunity for your club to connect with and introduce new players to the game, and reignite the passion of those who may have fallen out of touch with the sport.

To get your club involved, all you need to do is:

1.      Nominate a Bowls Month Coordinator at your club
2.      Choose a minimum of 1 event to run in October
3.      Register your club with Bowls Victoria to participate
