We like teaching the game, and it’s how we find new members. We have coaches on hand each Sunday (weather permitting) from 10-12 to give free lessons to beginners. Get a group together or come alone. We are happy to welcome you. No reservations needed but you should check the schedule at the bottom of this page to make sure we are open.. It’s FREE, just bring a desire to have some fun and flat soled shoes or sneakers. To ensure safety, lesson-takers must be at least 12 years old. We provide the rest of the equipment. Call 510-841-2174 or email us at berkeleylawnbowling@gmail.com for more information.
The more the merrier: if you have a a group of four or six friends, come learn together. You’ll be involved in a match by the end of your first day of instruction. If you are interested in bringing a larger group, drop us a line to receive more information on lessons or rentals for you and your friends.
We are also happy to host your private rental or corporate team building event. Call or email for information on this program.
