Are all lawn bowlers old and retired?
Lawn Bowling is a popular senior’s activity because it is one of the only sports that seniors can easily play. (Unlike hockey, baseball, basketball, etc) But no, it is not just for seniors. It is a sport for all ages. People starting to bowl in their twentys or thirtys or earlier, have an opportunity to become great bowlers and even compete in Canadian, World and Commonwealth tournaments around the world. The sport requires excellent co-ordination to become a competitive bowler, but the nice thing is at local draws and fun tournaments, anyone can participate at any age. At our club the average age is around 55. We have a few members in their 80’s as well as a few teenagers.
