Bowls Auckland

Not bad for a lad from Pt Chevalier Bowls! Aiden will be back soon for the World Bowls Series JBWere Auckland Open in December. Will you be joining him?

PLAYER SPOTLIGHT: AIDAN TAKARUA

2025 WBS Finals Silver Medalist. 2026 New Zealand National Mixed Pairs Champion. World No. 4.

Representing Pt Chevalier in New Zealand and Algester Sports Club in Queensland, Aidan Takarua continues to demonstrate elite play across the Southern Hemisphere and global tour stages. Having stepped onto the greens for the first time at 5 years old, Takarua has solidified his spot among the top players in world bowls.

"My favourite thing about bowls is how it's a competitive outlet and an amazing social side and community where you can find friends from so many different backgrounds, ages and lifestyles."

What an amazing weekend for our next-gen bowlers!
