Our story began in 1957. Residents in the Ascot Park area arranged a meeting to inaugurate a Bowling Club in the district. In January 1959 the site on Marion Road was chosen. The 1st opening of the A.P.B.C. was held in 1960. With the introduction of Indoor Bowls the club grew rapidly and had to limit membership to 220. As years progressed the club house had to be extended as membership reached 250 men and 135 ladies.
