The game of bowls has a long history and records from 1299AD show that it was already well established in England then. There is a famous story from 1588 when Sir Frances Drake is said to have continued his game of bowls as the Armada approached with the words "we still have time to finish the game and to thrash the Spaniards, too."
Outdoor (or indoor) bowls is a sport for all ages and abilities. Many people do enjoy the game during retirement, but there are also younger players from early teens to those who have to rush away from work on a regular basis to get to a game on time. The aim of the game is simple. Get your bowls as close as possible to a small white ball called the 'jack'.
