Hi to all bowlers

It is only 4 weeks until the start of the 2023 season. The first session is on Tuesday the 11th of April just after Easter.

The Entry Sheets for all Leagues and Mini Tournaments go up on the board on Monday morning the 13th March. You can either phone, email or call into the Stadium, from Monday, to put your entry in.

For the first 6 week block, the first 16 entries for each event will make up that league or mini tournament. Subsequent 6 week blocks where entries are over the number of 16 per event, ballots will take place.

For more info on the 2023 season visit the homepage on our website, bowlsstadium.nz and click on Booklet 23.

To avoid congestion at the front desk at the start of the season Subs can be paid online, click on Subscriptions 23 above, or at the Stadium

Good afternoon all bowlers

Registrations are now open for the 2023 Season. Go to our website bowlsstadium.nz , click on Subscriptions 2023 and follow the prompts.

If your club has applied for, and received a grant for Subscriptions, you will not have to do this.

For everyone else it would be fantastic if you could go on line and complete the form, then make the payment. The other option is to call into the Stadium and join.

It would be a real help to those at the front desk if this could be done between now and the end of March, rather than once the season starts to avoid congestion when arriving to play in leagues.

Any questions call John on 0273552819

Happy New Year to everyone.

It is with great pleasure that the Executive announce the names of our Restaurant/Lounge (off our bar area) and the Conference room at the end of the Building past the Bowls Dunedin Office. 

The Restaurant/Lounge will be called " The Keith Ellwood Lounge" and the Conference room will be called ''The Pat O'Dea Conference Room".

Without the efforts of Keith and the late Pat,  there would be no Stadium here today.

Keith still plays for Kaikorai and at the Stadium once a week.

All bowlers from our Centre and from around the country have a lot to thank these two for.

Jeff, Pat, Bruce and Hugh. Once again thanks .

The Stadium will be open from 9.30am - 4.00pm Monday to Friday. There might be the odd time due to unforeseen circumstances that we will be closed, so it might pay to phone first on 4561144.

A warm spring welcome to all bowlers. Thank you all for your fantastic support this year.

Just to clarify what is happening next weekend with the North vs South. The Stadium will be closed for all roll ups etc after the morning league finishes next Friday the 9th just after 12 midday.

Bowls NZ have an enormous amount of set up work to do to get the Stadium ready for Live Streaming of all games starting about 12.30pm on Saturday.

The programme for this event will be for the Saturday, 8 games of singles on the 2 rinks from 12.30pm, followed by 2 games of Mixed Triples finishing just after 8.00pm. On Sunday, starting approx 10.30am, there is Mixed Pairs followed by Mixed 4's, finishing around about 4.30pm to 5.

It would be great to see a big crowd of supporters over the weekend enjoying this spectacle.

Good luck to all those participating in the NZ PBA Finals in Wellington this weekend

Enjoy the last few weeks of the indoor season and all the best for the2022/23 outdoor season

27/07/2022 Hi all bowlers,

What a miserable 3 weeks it has been with the weather. Thank goodness we have the Stadium to play the sport we love.

The sheets for the last session starting the 15th August go up on the board this afternoon

Time to get some practice in to hit the ground running for when the outdoor season commences.

The North vs South game is fast approaching. The South team is announced later today. Let's hope a couple of our outstanding young bowlers (who know the Stadium surface well ) get selected.

Good bowling
