The Cooinda Bowls Championship was a notable regional event held across various clubs in Melbourne’s west, particularly involving Sunshine Bowling Club. The event was part of the Cooinda Festival, which was a multicultural community celebration held in Sunshine, Victoria, during the 1970s, with strong ties to local Aboriginal and migrant communities. The name Cooinda, an Aboriginal word meaning “happy place” or “meeting place” reflects the festival’s inclusive and celebratory spirit. The Sunshine Bowling club was founded around 1910, and is closely tied to the development of Sunshine as a company town under H.V. McKay, the industrialist behind the Sunshine Harvester Works. The club was located in the Sunshine Gardens, Andersons Road, Sunshine. In 2007, the club folded. Later the club rooms were demolished, and the former bowling rink was converted into a lawn area, and which is now part of the H.V. McKay Memorial Gardens. A wooden shield with inscription plaques attached. The shield comes apart into two sections, top & base.
