BRIEF HISTORY OF EDEN BOWLS:

Originally formed in June 1933 as SOUTH WESTERN DISTRICTS (SWD) and in December 1941 it became a sub district of the EASTERN PROVINCE BOWLING ASSOCIATION.

In May 1993 we became BOWLS SOUTHERN CAPE, with the Ladies’ and Men’s sections amalgamating in August 1996. In 2012 the Central Karoo Zone was formed as a separate zone within the district.

In November 2013, our district was renamed EDEN BOWLS.
