David Skidmore Floodlight Draw.

David Skidmore Memorial Floodlight Competition

David Skidmore was Chairman of Levens Bowling Club and the first Secretary of the new SLRBL (formed in 1997) until his death in 1998. This is why his bowls were used to form the trophy and the competition was dedicated in his memory.

The "David Skidmore Memorial Trophy" made by Janis Labsvirs of Levens, features David's Bowls mounted on a base with name plates of past winners since 1997.

The original floodlight competition for 1997 - 2000 was a mini league, 8 players in doubles matches, played at Levens Bowling Club. From 2001, with the increase to 12 teams forming the SLRBL, the competition changed to a "knock out" basis at 2 host clubs from the SLRBL.
