75 years bowling in Noosa

Noosa Tewantin Bowls Club celebrated its 75th birthday on Sunday 20 November with a day on the greens.

The club has come a long way since its inception in 1949 and nearly 100 members celebrated the day with a game of bowls, drinks and nibbles.

The day was supported by past and present members, life members, local politicians and other dignitaries some coming from interstate to celebrate.

Today the club boasts nearly 2500 members and operates and maintains three top class greens. The club is focused to continue its growth and maintain its community support and we proudly provide financial and in kind donations to over twenty community organisations and are focused on growing that number.

We offer open competition bowls Tuesday, Wednesdays, and Fridays and the club competes in the Sunshine Coast District Pennant Competition , this year we fielded six sides (four mens and two womens)

The result being that 4 out of the 6 made the finals with 2 teams winning back-to-back flags for the club, a great achievement and well done to all our player.

Our greens are open seven days a week and welcome not only our members but visitors, Barefoot Bowlers or social group to experience the fun of lawn Bowls.

The club is nearing completion of a $650,000 extension upgrade which will enhance our outdoor areas for socialising and enjoying the action on the greens. The club is also upgrading the external lighting so we can offer social and competition bowls during the evening enabling everyone the opportunity to play bowls around their busy schedules.

It’s a great achievement and we are very much looking forward to our new facilities and the next phase of our club’s rich history.
