Welcome to bowls Waiariki
Proud hosts of the Aotearoa Māori Bowls National Tournament held over Waitangi Weekend in 2026.
Nau mai, haere mai – Welcome!
Welcome to our new website, the online home for our vibrant community of outdoor bowlers. We're a group brought together by our shared love for the sport and our strong connection to place, people, and culture.
Our organisation is proudly grounded in Te Ao Māori, with many of our members being Māori, however we warmly welcome everyone – no matter your background – who shares our passion for bowls, whanaungatanga (connection), and community.
Take a look around, connect with us, and feel free to join us on the green. Whether you're a seasoned bowler or just starting out, there's a place for you here.
Ngā mihi nui – big thanks and warm regards,
Bowls Waiariki
We’re proud
We are lucky to have some great players within our rohe, at last years Nationals held in Gisborne we had players in the winning and runner up men’s and women’s teams.
