Founded in 1906 the Country Club Johannesburg, a private Members Club, is a noble landmark on the social landscape of Johannesburg and offers a range of social and recreational activities.

Auckland Park Bowls

Bowls is a fascinating and challenging game. Yet it combines skill with an atmosphere of friendliness and sociability.

Our greens are acknowledged as being among the finest, both locally and nation wide.

Don't be put off by old cliche's or ideas that bowls is a game for geriatrics. In Australia for example, the game is introduced at school level and worldwide is attracting interest among the younger generations.

What to do

Come for a trial game or some coaching. At CCJ beginners are warmly welcomed, and given free informal coaching. All you need initially is a pair of flat shoes and casual attire. The Club will provide bowls. Later you will need white clothing, proper bowling shoes and your own woods. Bowls can be bought new, or second hand.

If you are no longer working, this is the ideal way to have exercise with social enjoyment. There is no playing fee for a game of bowls!

Facilities

The Club has two bowling greens at Auckland Park.
