UK to Brisbane april 2024

[Simontucks]

Hi there!

We are moving to the Kenmore/bellbowrie area of Brisbane in april next year and am looking for advice on meeting new friends!.we are a family of 4,myself and my wife 48 and two daughters 16 and 12.

We have family,my brother and his family in the area who have lived there for nearly 30 years and with my brother's contacts through his business work is not going to be a problem for ourselves but, I'd like to make my own friends and not rely on my brother for everything.our interests include sports,myself an ex rugby union player but both my wife and I are keen bowlers and the children love sports, 16 is more into horses and 12 loves netball and cricket.

We are all pretty outgoing so any advice on clubs or activities in the area would be great to look at.

Look forward to hearing from you.

When I migrated, my biggest challenge was that so much of Australian social life revolves around sports, and I'm not sporty at all.   As you're all into sports, you'll have no difficulty. 

I assume you mean lawn bowls?  https://www.bowlsqld.org/
