Huddersfield Junior Bowling is back underway and while they lost two teams they have gained three more. 

Spen Victoria BC, Cowcliffe Liberal Club and Lindley BC joined the junior league for the first time.

The league has seven teams with 74 registered junior bowlers playing Saturday mornings starting at 10am.

Tommy Wilson Cup winners in 2019, Golcar Liberal Club, got off to a flying start with two good wins and only two dropped points.

Second placed Marsh Liberal Club have also made a good start after making a few new additions to their squad.

New club, Spen Victoria BC, have a strong squad and will not be far away at the end of August.

Meanwhile Almondbury Liberal Club are in a false position and will improve rapidly as the season progresses.

Grange Moor BC have a young side with many new bowlers, along with Cowcliffe Lib and Lindley BC

All the Cowcliffe and Lindley players are new recruits to the game of crown green bowling.

The Huddersfield Junior Crown Green Bowls Association committee are hoping to recruit more junior bowlers with their One Community restart programme throughout the summer when lockdown eases. Fun events are planned to encourage and promote the game for everyone.

Current Junior Bowling Standings

The committee have already commissioned new branded shirts for junior clubs, along with branded club jacks, measures and mats, scorecards and leaflets.

The junior bowling association would like to thank the One Community Foundation and The Huddersfield and District Bowling Community for all their support.
