Dinas Powis Bowling Club have strong links with the New Zealand B A. We were their host club for the 1958 Commonwealth Games held in Cardiff and the club also hosted a Test Match between Wales and New Zealand in 1991. They donated a Cup to the club in 1958 and this is presented annually to the winner of our Two Wood competition.
As part of their preparation for the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow they, together with Wales and Ireland, are taking part in a test series to be held at Dinas Powis and Barry Athletic from the 11th to the 13th July 2014.
The New Zealand Team will also be attending a concert, featuring 'The Maesteg Gleemen' on Wednesday 9th July at 7.30pm and we intend to give them a very warm "Dinas Powis" welcome.
Tickets for the concert, costing £6.00, will be limited and you are advised yours as soon as possible
