Apply for a BowlsLink website

Bowls has acquired the website domain name bowls.com.au to provide free of charge to Clubs on the recently released BowlsLink system partnership with Memberpoint.

This will provide clubs with an ability to describe their URL in marketing collateral in a very simple way and access websites such as www.darebincity.bowls.com.au.

There are two options available to organisations accessing the Memberpoint websites:

  1. Purchase their own domain name – i.e. www.hallsheadbowls.com.au
  2. Use the provided bowls.com.au domain name.

For further information regarding the these websites, please contact your STA representative below, or Bowls Australia.
