We would like to thank everyone who was part of our Pride Cup event. We’re still beaming with glee just thinking back to how much fun we had. From the awesome tunes of DJ Just Coz and DJ Emma to the glorious drag queens and their hilarious entertainment and the beautiful notes of Pitch Face Choir….with some lawn bowls in between. We cannot wait to have you all back again next year.

Two Shots Up Café is closing its regular service.

It’s not the end; rather an opportunity for us to look at our operating model and align it to better serve the needs of the club and benefit from the new Footscray Hospital when it opens in 2025.

We’ve had a great time serving members, visitors and friends over the past 12 months and look forward to seeing many of you when we open periodically during the intervening period to support Club run functions and events.

The bar at the Footscray Park Bowling Club is open for regular hours, Tuesday through Sunday, with a wide selection of drinks, beers on tap, and some of the best prices you will find anywhere!

We are a member-based club all revenue goes into developing the club and facilities for our community and members.

Join Pride Cup and Footscray Park Bowling Club on the 26th of April for an inspiring education session about LGBTQIA+ inclusion in sport.

This session is open to everyone; social members, players 18+, parents, coaches, administrators and officials – we’d love to have all of you with us.

🌹 Lest We Forget 🌹
