History of the Club
Harrow Bowls Club has a rich and fascinating history, dating back to 1902. Founded by Thomas Dell, a retired jeweller and watchmaker from Harrow on the Hill, the club has undergone many changes and developments over the years. In 1912, the club affiliated with the Motorists' Bowl Association (MCBA), becoming one of the 14 original founding clubs.
The club has a proud history of producing talented bowlers, including the great Tom Potts, who remains the greatest bowler in the history of Harrow B.C. The club has also had the honor of being the County fours winners in 1983 and the Double Fours championship in 2008.
