Brock Bowling Club
==History==
The club was founded in 1948 .〔D.A.B.C Centenary Committee ''100 Years''. Barr Printers, Glenrothes〕 as the Blackburn Welfare Bowling Club by fitters employed by the local Blackburn Aircraft Factory, which in the post war years adapted to the provision of pre-fabricated housing units. The club adopted the name of Brock as a tribute to Mrs Willox, who previously had been married to Mr Walter Brock Jnr of Levenford House, who died in 1937 and whose name she had offered when the Blackburn factory closed. Mrs Willox’s patronage was valuable at this time of change and she was a regular attender at the openings of the green for a number of years thereafter.
The honour of being elected the first President of the club was bestowed upon Mr Andrew Skinner,〔(Brock Presidents )〕 latterly a member of Townend B.C. and a notable personality around the local greens. His tenure of office saw the club successfully through its inaugural year and the succeeding one, 1949. The club champion in 1949 was D.L. Turner,〔(Brock Champions )〕 and, when five years later a ladies section was formed, Peggy McDonald was its first champion. In 1981 Ex-Provost Ian McDuff was elected Honorary President and in 1990 Mr Jimmy Marshall was elected Honorary Vice-President.
The club is located on the north side of Crosslet Road and lies between two schools, Dumbarton Academy and St Patricks Primary. The original clubhouse was located between the bowling green and tennis courts, which have been closed for many years, the ground having been required by the local Education Authority. A new clubhouse was constructed on the opposite side of the green in 1966 and has been extended, first in 1978 and more recently in 1993. It now provides a games room, main hall, bowls and committee rooms.
