In the penultimate match of the league stages of the Kingsley Shield, Bideford Victoria Park Bowling Club took on Barnstaple (Ashleigh Road) Bowling Club at Kingsley. Taking three of the four rinks, Victoria Park came out on top, winning 84:55. A closer match may have taken place had Ashleigh Road not been without one or two of their stronger players due to illness.
Victoria Park will now take part in the Final of the Kingsley Shield, playing either Bideford (Strand) Bowling Club or Byeways Bowling Club from Fremington, who meet on the 25th February. Photo - Members of Victoria Park and Ashleigh Road studying the head
