What is all the fuss about?
The tension is building and you can already feel the excitement in the air. The 2026 SA National Championship of Bowls for the Disabled is coming to Mossel Bay!
Groot Brak, Vista, Hartenbos and Mossel Bay Bowling Clubs will host visually and physically disabled bowlers from all corners of the country from 11 to 18 April 2026 as they compete in 17 different categories to decide who are the kings and queens on the green in both singles and pairs formats. A whole week of tough matches, comaraderie and renewed friendships.
The theme this year is “BOWLS WITHOUT BARRIERS”, highlighting our sport’s uniqueness and accessibility to anyone and everyone.
