The Ambler & Fuller Trophy
The Brian Ambler & Frank Fuller Trophy
The Brian Ambler and Frank Fuller Trophy is a single rink competition for teams from outdoor clubs. It is named in honour of Brian Ambler and Frank Fuller, two past presidents of Loddon Vale who had also bowled outdoors for many years and were well known in the outdoor bowls community, and who both died in 2019.
Congratulations to the 2024 winners: - Aldermaston 'A' with Old Basing Bears as runners up
The Ambler Fuller Memorial Trophy final took place on the evening of Saturday 13th April. The final was worthy of the occasion with five lead changes during the game and by the completion of the 21st end Aldermaston A beat Old Basing Bears by 23 shots to 21. Basingstoke Town Orchids beat Kingsclere 25-7 in the third place playoff. Thanks to all the clubs for supporting the competition. We hope you all have an enjoyable and successful outdoor season and look forward to seeing you again in the autumn.
