The sport of bowls is true “Sport For All” and people with a disability can play & compete with or against non-disabled bowlers. It is one of the most accessible and integrated sports readily available.
In recent years, the game has become far more accessible to people with disability and the development of specially designed wheelchairs and other aids enable greater participation.
