Honolulu Lawn Bowls Green

Ala Moana Park, Honolulu



          

Five minutes by bus or car from glamorous Waikiki, the clubhouse and green are located at Ala Moana Beach where after a game, bowlers can luxuriate in the calm, crystal clear turquoise tropical waters 100 yards from the club.  Also, close to Ala Moana Park there are several restaurants and bars which are popular with bowlers after games.

 

The green is in a public park belonging to the City and County of Honolulu.  The clubhouse and the green are maintained by volunteer work from several visitors and club members.  It is the only bowling green in Hawaii.  

 

The green was constructed during 1935 to 1936 by Australian servicemen who were stationed in Honolulu.  Initially, for several years it was used exclusively by them.  In the early 1950s the green was not used for several years and became overgrown with weeds.  It was restored and has been used continuously since 1956.


There have been a number of different clubs using our green over the years and the current Honolulu Lawn Bowls Club was formed in 1974 from a group of players who began playing together in the 1960's.  It was the first lawn bowls club using the Honolulu green to admit women members.
