The existing facilities of the Noordheuwel Bowling Club was originally known as the KADIMA BOWLING CLUB, founded in the early 1950’s. Over time with the dwindling membership and raising costs a decision had to be made on the future of the Club.
At the same time the then KRUGERSDORP WEST BOWLING CLUB was facing similar problems.
In January 2000 the then Management Committees of the two clubs held a joint Special General Meeting to discuss the future of the Clubs. It was eventually agreed that the two clubs be amalgamated. This resulted in the establishment of the NOORDHEUWEL BOWLING CLUB.
As there were other sporting disciplines available at the then KADIMA COUNTRY CLUB, to which the Bowling Club was affiliated, it resulted in the founding of the Noordheuwel Country Club to which the Bowling Club is affiliated.
The Club is affiliated to the Sables Bowling Association and Bowls South Africa. A highlight in the history of the Club was the election of Life Member Brian Sneag as President of NAAB and later World President Disability Bowls.
The Club mission is to promote the Sport of Bowls in the local community and to attract younger players to the sport. Members are encouraged to promote the Club and the Sport of Bowls amongst their family and friends. This has been most successful.
