Tawa RSA Community Bowls for 2023-24 season

Our Tawa RSA is running a Community Bowls program this summer and we invite all members of the community to take part.

We invite you to take part by way of a work, family or community team. Would love to see you join us.

Our venue is Tawa Services Bowling Club, 89 Oxford Street Tawa.

Scheduled dates, all in 2024, are Wednesdays:

24 January, 7, 14, 21, & 28 February, 6, 13 (reserve day) March.
Play each evening is 1 game, starting 6.00pm and finishing by 7.20pm

The format is 3 players to a team. (Player rotation is welcome as people often have other engagements cropping up.) At least one player should be a ‘non regular’ bowler. We have a supply of bowls for those who need them.

Footwear needs to have flat soles, i.e., no heels.

There is a $15.00 entry fee per team ($5.00 per player) payable each game. Register teams at the clubrooms or by emailing tawa.rsa@xtra.co.nz.

We play this as a league.The format is ‘Bowls3five’ which is the same format as that shown on television’s Sky Sports channels in November/December each year. i.e., 2 bowls per player, per end. 2 sets of 5 ends, followed by a one end ‘tie-break’ if necessary.

A ‘power play’ in each set.

A light supper is served at completion of play.

Please note your diaries to register a team early in the New Year to allow us time to prepare a draw, order food etc.

For further information, please contact

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

This Wednesday, we're having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.

John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!

As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!

John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.

Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
