About Kohimarama Bowling Club

Kohimarama Bowling Club is a lawn bowls club at 30 Melanesia Road in Kohimarama, Auckland. It sits one block back from Tāmaki Drive, with the Waitematā harbour and Rangitoto Island as its backdrop. The club describes itself as friendly, supportive and inclusive, and it says its mix of members includes juniors, working members and retirees. More than 65 per cent of its members are juniors who have been playing the game for less than five years. The club offers social and competitive bowls, coaching for all levels, and the clubhouse can be hired for social or business functions and team building.

The club says the game is less stressful than tennis or golf, and that members can play as often as they like, with events on many days of the week. Bowls 101 is a three-week course run through Selwyn Community Education, which began on Sunday 5 October. Free Give-it-a-Go rollup afternoons are held on Sunday 19 October and 15 February, and Fun Bowls nights start at 5.30pm every Wednesday. The club was voted Bowls Auckland Club of the Year in 2021/22.
