Gold Program 2024

We at Gaythorne Bowls Club like getting people involved in a new activity, called lawn bowls.

If you live around the Gaythorne / Mitchelton area, or for that matter, anywhere in Brisbane, come to Gaythorne Bowls Club and take up the challenge of playing lawn bowls.

It's easy and relaxing and you will say "that went fast" at the end of your FREE Learn to Play Lawn Bowls sessions during March and May 2024.

In March, the clubhouse will be open every Tuesday evening for FREE Learn to Play Lawn Bowls from 6 pm to 8 pm.

In May the clubhouse will be open every Wednesday Morning for FREE Learn to Play Lawn Bowls from 9 am to 11 am.

For all sessions enclosed, flat soled shoes are to be worn whilst on the greens. For May 2024 sessions we would recommend wearing Hats or sunscreen.

Can you also please arrive at least 15 mins prior to commencement time.

We at Gaythorne Bowls Club welcome people of all ages to its club and The Learn to Play Lawn Bowls sessions are for anyone aged 10 and over as our club wants to keep going for forever and a day.

We have worked very closely (since 2015 actually) with the Brisbane City Council in holding these Introduction to Lawn Bowls sessions as part of the Council's GOLD Program for people aged 50 and over.

GOLD represents Growing Old and Living Dangerously. There are all sorts of activities in the GOLD Program, but all the activities are aimed at getting older people involved in a new activity and one that will give them exercise and pleasure to undertake.

The club likes to encourage younger people to also come and join in, as its usually the younger ones, that will probably at a later time, enter and compete in the big State, National and International competitions.

So, all that is left for you to do is to add our dates to your Calendar and watch our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/gaythournebowls.club/ for more detailed information closer to the dates.

Our Bar will be open after both Learn to Bowl sessions.
