CLUB MEMBER POLICY.
Hi there,
The Bondi Bowling Club is a registered club under the Registered Clubs Act and is a member of ClubsNSW.
What does this mean?
Just like the North Bondi RSL, any Leagues Club or Golf Club you must become a member of a club or be signed in by a member of the club if you live within 5 kilometres of the club.
This has been in place since 1974. This is the law.
Simply said, we can cop a huge fine from licencing for anyone that is not signed in.
As a not-for-profit organisation, we’re here to build and invest in our local community which is the lifeblood of the Bondi Bowlo.
Becoming a 2021 Social Member has great benefits and it’s well worth joining up.
For more information head to ClubNSW.
COVID VACCINATION REQUIREMENTS
Due to public health orders the club is currently only able to admit 2 x Vax custom (staff are all 2 x Vax), we hope to allow all in after December 1st but until then if you want to drink/eat or bowls you will NEED to be DOUBLE VACCINATED to ENTER the club.
Thank you for your understanding and we’ll see you at the club.
Bondi Bowling Club Management
