WHY PLAY BOWLS ?
Lawn bowls has an image as being suitable only for retired people. The reason for this is that it is one of the few games that one can start when you retire. However, many people start playing when they are much younger - some as young as 12 years Old It is a game that can be enjoyed by anyone of almost any age. I would never suggest that a young person gives up playing football, rugby or cricket etc. in order to play bowls. However, a game once a week would not interfere with their other sports. Bowls is like most games, the earlier you start, the better you can get. It is far better exercise than sitting in front of the television. If you are not the strenuous type, then indeed, bowls is a very good form of gentle exercise. Hardly the same as a hard game of football or tennis, but still good exercise.

However, things are changing and the old codgers are dying out. One reason why the old codger won't play with ladies or youngsters, is because he doesn't like it when they beat Him
