These clubs not only provide a venue for engaging in lawn bowls but also offer valuable social interaction and physical benefits, especially for the senior community. Julia Henry, a new member, shares her heartwarming journey of finding physical activity and discovering the welcoming community through lawn bowls at Revesby Greens.
“After my partner passed away, I was left feeling alone. I needed to find a way to connect with people again, and that’s when I discovered lawn bowls. It turned out to be the perfect fit. Everyone at the club was so friendly from the start. I’ve made quite a few friends among the ladies there, which has been fantastic. Not to mention, getting out and playing has been great for staying active and enjoying the outdoors.
Deciding to take up lawn bowls wasn’t hard. It’s a game that’s suited for both the young and the old, and it’s easy to see why it’s loved by so many. It’s given me a chance to meet new people and enjoy some friendly competition, all while getting a bit of exercise in the fresh air. It’s just what I needed to help me find my feet again.” – Julia Henry Revesby Greens continues to be a beacon of community spirit, bringing together individuals of all ages to enjoy the camaraderie and physical activity that lawn bowls offers.
