You are never too old to try the ancient sport of bowls. Last year the average age of our new joiners was 65, with a 60/40 split in favour of women.

The NHS states the advantages of playing as:

Improved fitness: It helps maintain physical activity levels in a low-impact manner.

Enhanced co-ordination and skills: The game sharpens hand-eye coordination and motor skills.

Boosted mental wellbeing: Engaging in bowls can reduce stress and improve mood.

Social connection: It provides opportunities to socialize and build supportive relationships.

Our 220 members would agree with that.

We would like u3a members to just come to try it out.
