Lawn Bowling’s New Generation | Winnipeg News
Description
Lawn bowling is far from a relic—Manitoba’s eight clubs, buzzing with players from teens to nineties, prove it’s a vibrant, social sport. With family legacies like Sam Forrest and his grandfather competing nationally, and mother-daughter champs Clarice and Shirley Fitzpatrick-Hong, the game thrives on connection. Efforts like B-Cubed leagues—complete with BBQs and beats—are shaking off its “old-timer” image. Though recruitment struggles persist, the energy, accessibility, and heart of the game are pulling in new faces—one green at a time.
