A Short Film Clip of Lawn Bowling in Victoria BC ca 1919

Thanks to the Victoria Lawn Bowling Club I have some information about the clip.



This from about 1919  and shows the men of Victoria Bowling Club competing in inter-city tournament with Royal Lawn Bowling Club of Edmonton..



The game is being played in Victoria on the VLBC pitch.



As of this point no one can say for certain who the various players are.



The Victoria Lawn Bowling Clubs still exists
