Bowls Scotland is the national governing body for the sport of lawn bowls in Scotland. As the third largest national governing body of sport in Scotland, Bowls Scotland was formed in 2010 after the Scottish Bowling Association and the Scottish Women's Bowling Association voted to unify. Our vision: to be Scotland's local sport of choice; modern, successful and accessible to all. Bowls Scotland currently has 834 member clubs and nearly 50,000 members. In order to achieve our vision, we have a dedicated organisation made up of a board, volunteers and staff who work to not only deliver our sport to our current members but also actively promote our sport and encourage more people to get involved. The Team Scotland lawn bowlers at the 2014, 2018 and 2022 Commonwealth Games brought home gold and provided an excellent platform for us to build upon. As a result, we have launched our #TryBowls campaign which aims to get more people to try bowls at their local bowling club. Lawn bowls is a sport that can be played by anyone, no matter their age, ability or sporting background. It is a sport for life that not only provides physical and mental health benefits but also provides a warm and welcoming social community for all to join. We are forming partnerships with sponsors, commercial partners and government agencies to ensure that we maximise support for our clubs and volunteers as they bid to promote bowls throughout Scotland.
