The History of Bowls presented by David BryantThroughout the centuries , bowls , one of the oldest of all
sports has captivated many famous people: William Shakespeare
probably played; Henry VIII certainly did; Dr. W G Grace founded
the English Bowling Association; Walt Disney was a bowls nut; and
everyone knows the story of Sir Francis Drake.
This dvd reveals some little-known facts about the origin of the
sport and contains some remarkable footage of the best players
in action.Sit back and watch the greats of the game from David
Bryant to David Gourlay , Tony Alcock to Richard Corsie and Peter
Belliss to Willie Wood. All featured and many interviewed about
their greatest moments in the game.
The magic of the World Championships both indoors and out , is
caught on camera , and some of the best action from Commonwealth
Games over the years.
For example , few people have seen the astonishing climax to the
1998 world outdoors singles final , in which David Bryant played
a shot in a million to deprive Willie Wood of the title at the
Henderson club in Auckland. Television has been covering bowls
in a big way for more than twenty years , and the best clips have
been chosen to illustrate what a fascinating and challenging sport
bowls is , with force and finesse being used in equal measure.
Forget the sedate image , this sport is full of tension , drama and
excitement as well as unbelieveable skill. And moments of humour
like the famous occasion during the world indoor singles champ-
ionship at Potters Leisure Resort when a streaker invaded the rink.
Someone once said "Bowls is like snooker...only with biggerballs!"
