Researched by Rick Tarleton & John Hornsby
Contact: oakhambowlingclub.co.uk for further details
Oakham Bowling Club published this booklet as part of their programme to celebrate the
centenary of the club’s formation in May 1910.
Its chapters include the early years of the club’s formation, how it has developed over the
years, the history of The Vale, home of the club, the trials of achieving a good green and
details of matches played and social activities undertaken. Also included are appendices which
list club officers and competition winners. The text is interspersed throughout with
photographs and cartoons. Considering the lack of archival material the researchers have
produced an interesting history and it is hoped that researchers of the club’s history in 2110
will have more records to consult!
May present and future members of the Oakham Bowling Club continue to enjoy their bowling
for many years to come.
