1958
In 1958 several local residents attended a meeting in the change rooms at Charles Riley Reserve with an Agenda to form a Lawn Bowls Club in the area. George Flick was elected President, JAH (Bill) Boyle Snr Vice President and Bernie Saunders elected Secretary. Prior to the establishing of a "Green", members bowled on the turf of Charles Riley Reserve and refreshed themselves at the Castle Hotel.
Due to the efforts of the Sub-Committee the members were allocated Lot 7 Swan Location 7063 in Kitchener Street North Beach to establish a Club House and Greens. To achive this a successful application was made to the Perth Road Board for a grant of twenty thousand pounds, on the proviso that the members raised five thousand pounds.

The club's first achievement in Pennant competition was winning the Pennant of Division 4B in 1964/65.
The club has since that date been successful in attaining many more Division Pennants and 1st Division status both Midweek and Saturday competitions.
