European Bowls Championships

Continental Championships

The European Bowls Championships, formerly the European Bowls Team Championships, is a biennial continental lawn bowls tournament for European nations. It was established in 1997 so that smaller countries in Europe could compete against the more established bowls nations, with the aim of fostering and developing lawn bowls across Europe, and the first championship was held that year with financial help from the Guernsey Tourist Board. In 1997 it was a team event of two sets of mixed pairs from each country, with men's and women's singles whose winners met in a Champion of champions match, and from 1999 singles and mixed pairs were played as part of the team event. The European Bowls Union organised it until September 2021, when its members voted unanimously to replace it with the limited company Bowls Europe Ltd, registered in Scotland. The competition now features singles, pairs, triples and fours, and nineteen member nations are affiliated to Bowls Europe.
