Pelorus Trust Better Bowling Training Camps

Better Bowling is back for 2026 and this year we are looking at leveling up our program.

With more High Performance coaches, with qualified sports psychologists helping, and more time on the green with some of Wellington's best players and coaches. We are working on bringing Neville Rodda with his tourny app to talk through on green recording and will have a training group event at the end of these trainings. Keep watching this space for more updates and registration information.

Due to increasing costs of putting these camps on, there is a small charge of $20 per session or $50 for all three. There will be a small celebration on the final day for those who made all 3 sessions.

High Performance Coaches: Jim Swift, Brady Amer, Rachel Wybourne-Curtin and Blake Signal.

Proposed Dates:

Session 1 is ideal for ALL levels of bowls. It will go through Rules and etiquette on the green for newer players or those that need a refresher. There will be basic pre shot routine set up, drills and bulding a training program. We will also have more advanced training tips on the day for those with more experience. Plenty of time on the green for all.

Session 2 will be step up from the previous session where we will go more indepth with training plans and setting personal performance programs. Here you will get how to structure your training and what drills are best for you at your level. We will look at tayloring ways to record training and use technology in this case. This is still a great session for newer players also as we will help taylor your own personal program.
