What We Do: Carpet bowling has been a popular activity at Century House since before 1989.
Important to Know: The game is played on a long ‘felt’ carpet. Each team has four players and 2 teams compete on each carpet. Other equipment includes a small white ball called a ‘jack’ and larger black and brown balls – 4 per team. The jack is rolled to a position on the carpet and then each player takes turns rolling the larger balls to try to get as close to the jack as possible. It is a game of skill as well as strategy and control. The play proceeds from alternate ends of the carpet.
The group welcomes new members and visitors to enjoy a stimulating time of fellowship and friendly competition.
