Malvern Bowling Club

About Malvern Bowling Club

Malvern Bowling Club has occupied the same small block on Coonil Crescent, behind Cabrini Hospital, for more than 110 years. It is a compact, tight-knit community club that fields pennant sides, but it puts just as much effort into social bowls, newcomers and groups who simply want an afternoon or evening out on the green. Flat-soled shoes or bare feet are the only real requirement. Groups can book their own rink for a corporate or family outing, and the club pitches its business bowls as an alternative to a corporate golf day: everyone starts and finishes together, stays within easy talking distance, and almost anyone can roll a bowl well enough to contribute. The green has lights, so sessions can start late in the afternoon and run until around 9:30pm, and the club's coaches and volunteers set up games for the group. A large barbecue sits beside the green, and the licensed bar, run by volunteers, carries beer, wine, cider, premixed drinks, spirits and soft drinks. On Wednesday evenings through the bowls season, non-members can also join barefoot bowls with the bar and a community meal, as long as they phone ahead. The hall covers 160 square metres and holds 40 to 80 people depending on layout. It is a bright, airy room with polished timber floors, honour boards, ceiling fans and reverse-cycle air conditioning, and it comes with WiFi, a laptop, a 4K projector and drop-down screen, a whiteboard, a portable PA, dimmable lighting and folding tables and seating for 80. The kitchen next door is fully fitted for caterers or self-catering, and there is room out the front for a coffee or food van. It suits milestone birthdays, engagements, anniversaries, Christmas parties, training days and presentations, with green time added by arrangement.
