 Osher PITT - TBA 2024

One way to learn about Lawn Bowling is through the Osher Life Long Learning Institute at PITT. The FPLBC offers a course for beginners through Osher CMU every May. In order to take advantage of this class, you must sign up through the Osher program. Registration begins in early April. Here is the course description.

“Lawn bowling has been a tradition on Pittsburgh’s Eastside since 1938. Frick Park’s lawn bowling greens, managed by the nonprofit Frick Park Lawn Bowling Club, are one of the many attractions of this part of the city. Learn the sport’s basic skills, guided by experienced players who will lead hands-on coaching sessions and games on the greens. Lawn bowling is fun and easy to learn. Mastering its finer points also provides a steady and interesting challenge. The course will provide many opportunities to practice the different strategies employed in singles, doubles, and triples play. All necessary equipment will be provided. This activity requires walking/standing for two hours. Please wear flat and soft-soled shoes, and bring a hat, sunscreen, and water bottle.”
