The Case for an Artificial Green

"Bowling green maintenance and management is often described as an art. However, the number of "available artists" is declining. Finding replacements for retiring volunteer greens-keepers is proving difficult due to the lack of interest by current lawn bowlers and agricultural school graduates. In some Canadian cities, green maintenance is handled mostly by the City’s parks maintenance staff. For these and other reasons, not the least of which are ever increasing labour and specialized equipment costs, many bowls clubs/cities in Canada have decided to install artificial bowling surfaces.

Those who maintain these new surfaces describe the care and maintenance as minimal: the surface is vacuumed as needed, mainly to remove surface debris such as bird droppings, leaves and other windblown materials. As on natural grass greens, bowling direction is rotated regularly to more evenly distribute any potential wear."
