Not really a big film fan but thought i'd learn as much about bowls as possible.
Was thinking of getting some books from the library too

not sure but i think tony allcock has a vid or dvd and maybe your legend david bryant i would go for them first if you want to learn

Watched Black Ball, brilliant, it has every character in every bowling club, definitely a great film, could watch it over and over,

P.S.

Also seen the Oz film Crackerjack, as good as English Blackball film, in the film Crackerjack, if you have seen it the bit about the 'Wheel of Cheese' incident actually happened. While the writers were visiting various bowls clubs for inspiration, one of them explained the sordid story of a club investigation into a member using the cheese for a sandwich instead of the regulation cheese and biscuits. A good example of the rules etc etc etc in bowls!!!!!!!!!
