Parklands Bowling Club is the youngest Bowling Club in Canterbury .In 1991 Howard Smith ,an prominent bowler at the Linwood Bowling club though it a good idea to establish a Bowling Club in the newly developed suburb of Parklands.

Howard lived local and after discussion with his neighbour, Maitland Lawrence, the two men started the process canvasing local businesses, one of those being Ken Bryenton who at the time owned the local Mobil petrol station in Queenspark, and discussion with the city council and securing a lease on land next to Arthur Adcock Reserve.
