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.

Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕
Wellington’s identity is built on its cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.
We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️
We want to know: How are you handling the "coffee math" in 2026? Are you still heading to your local for a chat and a caffeine fix, or has the cost of living changed your habits?
Keen to read more about "coffee math"? The Post has you covered.

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
