Morwell Bowling Club, located in Latrobe City, has been a prominent part of the community since its establishment in 1913. The club initially began with a 3 rink green and 41 founding members, and over the years, it has expanded its facilities and offerings. In the 1920s, an additional rink was built, and in 1945, plans were put forward to construct a seven rink green on a new site leased from the shire. The present site on Hazelwood Road is where the club is now located, with the green being constructed and funded wholly by its members.
It was officially opened on New Year's Day in 1949.
At Morwell Bowling Club, members, and guests can enjoy a range of facilities and services.
