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

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
