FAQ’s

Casual apparel and soft sole shoes are all you need to join us at NTLBC for our regular games.

 Is this a league where I am committed to scheduled games?

No, it is a play as you book with whomever is listed in the time slot and rink you have selected. There are no leagues and no commitments to specific days or times. You will book your days and times online, on sign up genius. You can play as often as you like.

Is there any equipment needed?

Bowls are provided for free for the first year of membership. Starting in your second year, you will pay a nominal amount to rent bowls for the season.

We recommend you bring a small towel to use for wiping your bowls during the game due to moisture or grass accumulation.
