2026
  Welcome to the Somerset West Bowls Club website! We would love to welcome you to our club as player as well as social member and introduce you to the wonderful sport of lawn bowls.  Whether you are young, older, single, married, studying, disabled, etc, this is the place to play a sport while at the same time connect with people. We are equally serious about being competitive and being social, but the most important value that we strive towards, is being friendly and kind.

Introducing bowls as a sport

We love to welcome new members, and we are fortunate to have three level 2 and two level 1 coaches registered at BSA (Bowls South Africa). Coaching is FREE and we have all the equipment to get you started on your journey.  Bowls is a sport for ALL ages! We have members aged between 12 and 90 years old and we accommodate players with disabilities. Bowls keep you active, physically and mentally, while providing a safe environment for interacting and connecting with other people. You decide if you want to play competitively or socially, or both, while having fun.

 

Building a bowling community

Our club needs the support of our community with regards to sponsorships, corporate and private events.  We present Business Leagues in May and October every year, where teams from various companies compete and interact with each other. This normally takes place on Wednesday evenings, including 2 games, a light supper and great company afterwards.

Our club hosts various events for team building, year-end functions, fun days and private functions at very reasonable cost. The cost includes renting of bowls, use of our facilities (clubhouse, licenced bar, stoep, braai area, kitchen) and some coaching to get the games started.  

Contact Leonie Taljaard at 0829049868 or cipleonie@mweb.co.za to book your spot for Business League or bowling events.
