National lawn bowlers triumph again at Asian Championships

KUALA LUMPUR, May 4 — Malaysia maintained their dominance in lawn bowls by retaining the overall champions title at the 16th and 14th Under-25 Asian Lawn Bowls Championships 2025 in Clark, the Philippines.

The national squad concluded their campaign with an impressive haul of seven golds, two silvers and one bronze, confirming Malaysia’s position as a lawn bowls powerhouse in Asia.

Malaysia Lawn Bowls Federation president Datuk Awalan Abdul Aziz commended the team for winning seven of the 11 gold medals contested — one of their best performances.

He attributed the success to the intensive training conducted on the Royal Malaysian Air Force’s natural grass lawn in Sendayan, which closely resembles the surface at Clark Bowling Green, the tournament venue.

“Congratulations to the team of hardworking athletes, coaches and the management. In short, I couldn’t ask for more! I am really proud of them.

“I hope we can maintain the same momentum for future big international tournaments, especially the World Cup in November this year and the Commonwealth Games next year,” he said in a statement today.

The seven gold medals were won in the men’s team events (pairs, triples and fours), women’s team events (singles and pairs) and Under-25 events (women’s singles and mixed pairs).
