Welcome to the Perthshire Bowling Association website. Its purpose is to keep our Member Clubs in Perthshire updated with fixtures, events, results, and news from around the area. Information can be found for all the Perthshire Championship games that we organise for Members throughout the year together with the County and Senior matches played throughout the season. Encouragement is given to add a Club event to the events page at the beginning of the season and there is contact information or direct link to a website for every Club in the area.
Of course the website is reliant on receiving information from clubs but for our part we will do our upmost to make sure anything we receive is added to the website in timely fashion; however, if anything is spotted which looks unusual please let us know for correction.
The PBA was established in 1907 and celebrated its centenary a few years past. Thanks to all the organisers and sponsors that make our Championships, and of course to the Umpires for their continued help throughout. I hope that the 2024 season will go smoothly and include the Campbell Trophy Tornament, which will be on the 21st June.
Like all the Northern Associations we have withdrawn from the Bowls Scotland Andrew Hamilton Trophy. However, to continue our County experience we are joining the other Northern Associations to play for the Northern Trophy. We will play 7 matches over the season, 4 of which will be away matches. Please come along and support our County Team.
Mandy and her team have been and will I am sure, continue to work very hard with the Under25s, and will build on the solid base of last season.
Congratulations to Dunning BC in retaining Top 10 Trophy. They will represent Perthshire in the 2024 Inter-County.
Congratulations to Glencarse BC who beat Port Glasgow BC, then The Rock BC, and then in the Quarter Final Castle Douglas BC in the Inter County Top 5 Trophy. They move on to the Semi Final at Sitehill BC to be played on 8th September at 11am against Marchmount BC from Dumfriesshire. Good luck guys make your Club and Perthshire proud.
I look forward to to meeting many of you on the green and if you have any suggestions for improvement in anything we do come and talk to me.
Yours in sport
Willie Donaldson
President.
