Bowlr Forum User Guide

The New Bowlr Forum

The Bowlr Forum is  a friendly, interactive place for discussion where members can ask for, and share their opinions, advice and experiences. 

It is a way to connect with fellow bowls club members across the UK and you will get a lot of great advice, but keep in mind that you should use your best judgement to evaluate information and advice from other members.

Topics for discussion are grouped by indoor and outdoor clubs, returning after Covid-19 and also product-related posts about using Bowlr.

Anyone can view the Bowlr forums, but to post a new topic or reply to a post, you'll need to create a free account.
