The Basics

The Harrogate Amateur Bowling Association (HABA) website www.harrogateaba.co.uk contains very useful information such as: ‘Why Play Bowls’ and ‘The Game of Crown Green Bowls’. Details of the basics of the game, necessary clothing and bowls equipment can also be found.

Competitive Bowling

For those wishing to play bowls competitively, which is undoubtedly the best way to learn and improve, our Club currently supports eleven teams which participate in four different leagues in Yorkshire. Each league has its own time slot for when matches are played thereby providing a choice of playing weekday morning, evenings or Saturdays. Further details of our teams, their respective leagues and how matches are played can be found here.
