Volunteer Recruitment Now Open for Three Major 2026 Events
Bowls Scotland is now recruiting volunteers for three upcoming events in our 2026 calendar.
Our sport would not be the same without the support of our incredible volunteer workforce, and we are always hugely grateful to those who give up their time to help at events across the year. Whether you are available for a single day or for a full week, there are a range of opportunities to get involved and play an important part in making these events a success.
From welcoming players and spectators to supporting match operations, volunteering is a great way to meet new people, gain experience and be part of the action at some of the biggest events in the Bowls Scotland calendar.
For those based in Glasgow and the surrounding areas, we would particularly appreciate your support for the 4 Nations event, which takes place first at the end of April and beginning of May. Please also feel free to share these opportunities with members of your club and wider contacts.
If you have any questions, please contact us via this email address or reach out to Gemma at events@bowlsscotland.com.
