Lawn Bowls
History
Historians suggest that the game of lawn bowls made its way across Europe with Julius Caesar's centurions. At that time, and still today among Italians, the game was known as "bocce". By the 13th Century, "bowls", was entrenched in the British Isles. Lawn Bowls in the Blacktown City area was founded in Riverstone in 1931, since then there have been four other clubs including, Blacktown City which was founded in 1951, Toongabbie in 1958, Blacktown Diggers in 1967 and Blacktown Workers in 1969. These five clubs provide bowls for all the citizens of Blacktown with competitions and social bowls for women, men and juniors at a very reasonable charge.
