Bowls Equipment

Introduction:

Here’s a number of suppliers who can kit you out to look like a professional. We might not all be able to play as well as many of the County Superstars, but when it comes to flashy bowls, a matching bowls bag, a great shirt and the latest set of measures, this is the place to be. How does the phrase go?
‘All the gear but still no idea’.
But seriously, that correct size of bowl can make all the difference, especially if you’re starting out on your bowls journey. Not only that, there’s a number of companies that offer services such as bowls testing, re-stamping of jacks and lacquering, so your bowls are pristine and everything is legal for the new season.
