Newbie Bowls sweeps

The concept: fresh grass between your toes, afternoon summer sun on your face, the smell of delectable boerie rolls filling your nostrils, an ice cold frostie in your hand and a friendly, competitive game of bowls with some of the most chilled people in Cape Town.

’ll be honest, I had no idea this was going down right here in Camps Bay and Clifton! We’ve all seen theNewbie Bowls website before and it was only today that I looked out the car window and spotted the bowling greens from Victoria Road, overlooking Clifton and La Med! I remembered an invite I had recently received mentioning the “Glen Country Club.”
My God, I yelped, IS this it?!
Surely not?
I asked my driver to turn around and go down the La Med Road to have a look. And there it was, built like something out of The Godfather – “The Glen Country Club.”
“My GOD….that is cool…,” I whispered to myself, as visions flashed through my mind, conceptualising how incredible a day at these blowing greens could actually be.
