Huge congratulations to Bruno (Brian) Sturman, Ivan Freedman and Ivan Howman from the Priory Garden Bowls Club for their success in the Age Concern Mrs Clifford King Bowls Challenge Cup.

This was hosted by Horsford Bowls Club on Saturday, 6th June 2026 and is open to all Bowling Clubs registered to play in the AGE Concern League across Norfolk.

After playing in the rain for the entire morning session, the match was adjourned for lunch with a 100% winning record for their team and a healthy shot difference. Following lunch, Bruno and the two Ivans continued their winning ways and, after only being behind for one end during the whole tournament, they finished with a maximum of eight points and a healthy positive shot difference of twenty-eight.

This tournament was first played in 1954, and the Priory Garden Bowls Club last won this trophy back in 1987. In fact, this is the first season they have played this tournament since 2001, so this is wonderful news to bring the trophy back to the Club in Wymondham on their first time competing in 25 years!
