Bowls Clubs
Inner-west Sydney lawn bowls club with twilight bowls, coaching for new players, and a café on site. Visitors and new members welcome.
Balmain RSL Lawn Bowls Club has been part of the Balmain community since the 1920s. The club has two greens and runs both competitive and social bowls year-round.
Coaching is available for new bowlers — bring flat-soled shoes and they'll loan you the bowls. Twilight bowls runs Friday evenings in daylight saving months, drawing a mixed-age crowd. The clubhouse café is open for member lunches and bar service.
Members include veterans and non-veterans alike; the club operates under the Balmain RSL sub-branch. Visitors welcome — drop in for a roll-up.
