Welcome to Sydenham Bowls Club

The Sydenham Bowls Club (SBC) is the 2nd oldest in Canterbury, existing at the same site and providing community members, of all ages, a safe place to get physically active and make connections with their peers since 1888. This history is important & all the members who feel the need to help keep the club thriving. 

The SBC provides organised sport for all our members. As a club we want to be more than just a successful bowls club. Our aim is to promote community spirit. We give local south Christchurch people the opportunity to participate in sport within a supportive environment that fosters strong family values. In order to manage the club we have a dedicated volunteer base who ensure each week that members are able to play the game they love. 

​​​​​​​Our members are generally locals from the South east area of Christchurch with various ethnic backgrounds and range in age with a mixture of socio-economic backgrounds which make us a very diverse club. 

We're located at 230 Brougham Street at the western end of Sydenham Park. Behind the big  fence & the Cricket clubrooms. (Don't worry we'll get the big fence repainted one day but, long story short, that paintjob has caused a few headaches in the past, with the local lawmakers !!)
