About the location

The New York Lawn Bowling Club was founded in 1926 and has maintained residence north of Sheep Meadow in Central Park and is part of a regional (Northeast Lawn Bowling Association), national (BowlsUSA) and global community of bowlers. The New York Lawn Bowling Club has held and won regional tournaments, and is famous for hosting bowlers from far off places as Australia, England and South Africa. Players compete by rolling four oblong biased bowls along a flat grass surface aiming to place their bowl closest to a smaller target called the “jack”, “It’s a game of skill and distance that fully explores the balance between strength and finesse,” said current Club Vice President and Coach, Ryan Hastu.
