Liverpool Youth Bowling Club

History

Liverpool YBC was started at Edge lane in 1990 to enable children of all ages to take a more active part in tenpin bowling and to help them develop their bowling skills.

The league had approximately 40 juniors that turned up every Saturday morning to bowl 3 games of trios in their own league.

In September '91 the league was officially sanctioned by the British Tenpin Bowling Association (BTBA) and we joined the National Association of Youth Bowling Clubs (NAYBC.

The members of Liverpool YBC meet and bowl on Saturday mornings at 10.30am.

Committee

Instructors...Peter Lam, Phil Southward, Ian Tabron, Jim Missen.
