Macandrew Bay Bowling Club is a club at 12 Conway Street in Macandrew Bay, on the Otago Peninsula in Dunedin. It has a 4.6 rating on Google.
A good bowling club is welcoming to beginners, with a well-kept green, friendly members and a social side that goes beyond the game. Lawn bowls is gentle and sociable, suits all ages and abilities and is easy to pick up, so most clubs run open days or roll-ups where you can try it with borrowed bowls. When choosing a club, ask about membership, what the fees cover, when the season runs, whether there is coaching for new players and what social events are held. Regulars know that flat-soled shoes are needed on the green, that a short trial costs little, that summer evening roll-ups are relaxed and that clubs often have a clubhouse with a bar for after the game. Check the season's dates, as many clubs close for winter, and ask whether visitors can play. Dress for the weather, and bring sun protection.
For anyone in Macandrew Bay and Dunedin, Macandrew Bay Bowling Club on Conway Street is a local club to try a game.
