The official website of the global federation for flat green bowls.
Bowls England governs the game of flat green outdoor bowls for men and women in England. It was formed on 1 January 2008 following a merger of the English Bowling Association and the English Women's Bowling Association.
We are a forward thinking County, affiliated to Bowls England. Our objective is to provide bowlers of any age, gender, ethnicity or disability, a safe, enjoyable lawn bowling experience, at any of the 49 clubs across our beautiful County.
The League was formed in 1984 with just seven local flat green bowling clubs, Northampton County Ground, Northampton West End, Express Lifts, Mann s, St. Crispin Hospital, Kingsthorpe and Whyte Melville.
The league was very much due to the efforts of the late Arthur Capon and now consists of four divisions with thirty two teams drawn from clubs in and around Northamptonshire
The EBUA is the unified governing body for qualified Bowls Umpires in England.
We are responsible for appointing Umpires to any events as requested by the local, national and international governing bodies of the Sport of Bowls.
