Answer 1

Lilydale Bowls Club in Victoria. They hosted learn to play sessions to encourage new players. They also have a social night on friday nights, where you can get together and have a go for a couple of bucks. Its not too serious, and they dont mind if you send the ball in the wrong direction every now and again. The drinks are cheap, and the people are friendly, what more can you ask for?

Answer 2

I have been bowling for near 4 years at various clubs, i think as bowling goes it has it all, it may not be a high flying royal casino with bed and breakfast but it does have the hospitality of a small country town atmosphere in this big city smoke, here you'd be on a first name basis with all. Blacktown city bowling club has 3 generous well maintained greens and bowlers with nick names like JUG the ned Kelly of bowls , Happy, two dogs and more, you'll leave with a smile, come on down.

I would say without a doubt it is the "Safety Bay Bowling & Recreation Club" In Rockingham W.Australia as you see it is not just a Bowling Club, so we have a lot of young people about the place, all synthetic greens, which stops a lot of arguments about the greens. a big membership, so much so that on a thursday Penants day we can get up to 60 Bankers playing (That is Bowlers)We also have the usual Friday nights dinner and Raffle,
and several special nights through the year.
