The Club , originally known as Dafen Welfare Crusaders, was founded in 1990 by  architects Clive Coles and David Lloyd. They were requested to first appear before the Dafen Welfare Committee to swear allegiance to the Park as it was then.  

In 2020 they moved to their current home at the lower Green at Parc Howard Llanelli. They then became known as Crusaders Bowls Club.

The Club play competitively on Saturday afternoon within Carmarthen County in Division 1 of the Llanelli & District Bowls League

Senior members aged 55+ also play in the Dinefwr Veterans League, a two rink triples competition played on Thursday afternoon.

The Club practice day for 2025 will be Wednesdays between 2pm to 6pm.approx on the Lower Green, Parc Howard. 

Crusaders is a sociable club of all ages and warmly welcomes new members both male and female.

THE STRADEY ARMS  FURNACE,  LLANELLI

The Club is fortunate to have the support of it’s main sponsor The Stradey Arms.

After a match or practice session members regularly convene there for socialising and refreshment and also meet there on a Wednesday evening during the closed season.

Proprietors Lisa & Wayne have been so helpful in many ways since their arrival.

In particular the Club is most grateful for their sponsorship of the new kit for 2024 as illustrated below.

This followed their donation of a memorial bench which was installed on the Bowls Green in summer 2023.
