Irish schools bowls programme plans to reach 20 schools in early 2027

The Irish Bowls Federation plans to work with 20 primary schools during the first three months of 2027 through its Primary Schools Programme.

The federation says almost 400 children have already taken part since the end of September. It is inviting more schools, teachers and pupils to get involved, with no previous bowls experience required.

The programme introduces the sport through activities that develop coordination, teamwork and confidence.

Schools interested in taking part can contact programme coordinator Nigel Moffett at nigelmoffett@zoho.com. The federation also thanks Moffett and John McConville for their work on the programme.
