“When you hear the word bowls you often think old man’s game, but this is definitely not the case,” says Lizzy Alexanders, bar manager of the club.

The club’s youngest member is Barend Steyn Jnr (8) and the eldest member is Dougie De Beer (88).

The Bowling Club boasts three greens, bar facilities, a massive hall for functions and most importantly, friendly members that always go that extra mile to make everyone feel welcome.

The new bowling season recently kicked off and the members are already on a roll (pardon the pun).
