JINDABYNE, NSW – June 20, 2025 — Jindabyne Bowling & Sports Club is thrilled to announce the completion of its highly anticipated club upgrade project, a milestone that marks a fresh chapter for the beloved community hub.
With construction now wrapped, locals and visitors are being welcomed into an enhanced space that better serves the social, sporting, and hospitality needs of the Snowy Mountains region. The project, which began in early 2025, has delivered a brand-new bar area with a modern design, improved accessibility features, upgraded lighting & AV, and a refreshed bistro fitout. These improvements reflect the club’s commitment to growing its role as a relaxed and inclusive meeting place for all.
“This project has been all about enhancing the experience for our members and guests,” said Club Chairman Nick Oakman. “We’re investing in the future of the club — not just to provide a better space, but to increase visitation, drive new revenue opportunities, and be a vibrant hub that reflects our community’s spirit and meets the diverse needs of our members, locals, and visitors.”
The bistro is one of the most noticeable changes, featuring a new layout designed for better service flow and social interaction. The main bar has also received a complete makeover, creating a range of spaces for groups of different sizes and needs.
Chairman Nick Oakman also praised the management team and staff, who maintained full club operations throughout the construction period. “It’s no small feat to run a club while you’re rebuilding it,” he said. “Our management team has worked incredibly hard behind the scenes to keep things ticking along — and they’ve done it with real passion and pride, whilst delivering this project on time and budget. It has been an extraordinary effort.”
As part of the club’s long-term strategy, the upgrades are designed to future-proof the venue and expand its offerings — from sport and entertainment to food, drink, and function spaces.
Locals are invited to come in and experience the changes firsthand. With a new winter menu and host of specials, along with the usual favourites like weekday happy hour, trivia, poker, social squash, Friday raffles, and bowls comps, there’s no better time to reconnect with the Bowlo.
