Helpful Lawn Green Bowling Links
Unlike some of the other Lawn Bowling Sites on the Internet, I have not indiscriminately linked to all the bowling sites I could find. What I have tried to do is to link to sites that add value to bowls on the Internet. I have of course, also included links to the websites (good or bad) of the main associations and organisations in the sport.
If you have a bowling website that is of a reasonable or better standard and that offers real content and information of interest to other bowlers get in touch with us and we will consider linking to you. Similarly, if you have a site that is not necessarily about bowling and you think it would be of interest to our site visitors let us know.
Books on Bowls
If you are looking for printed information about bowling this is probably the only link you will ever need, It is a non-commercial website where the owner is a collector of bowling books. He has catalogued all the books in his collection and added a record of Lawn Bowling videos. It also includes other useful links.
