The Sheffield Civics crown green bowling tournament was originally introduced as a form of entertainment for those Sheffield residents unable to holiday during war time.
Traditionally the Civics lasted two weeks of local industry's shut down period and was attended by hundreds of bowling enthusiasts and their families. Over 60 years on, it remains a prestigious tournament, with many of the best bowlers in Sheffield competing alongside local hopefuls.
