At it’s inception in 1936 the League had three main Officers: President, Chairman and Secretary/Treasurer. This lasted for 32 years until, in 1968, a separate post of Treasurer was created while the Secretary became both Secretary and Competitions Secretary. Twenty-eight years on, in 1995, full responsibility for Competitions was transferred to a specific new post - Competitions Secretary.
A number of people have served the League for an exceptional period of time: H G Snow of Preston Manor BC was President from 1968 to 1982, the first Secretary/Treasurer - E T Husbands of the Bakers & Allied Trades BC - occupied the post from 1936 to 1951 and since the post of Treasurer was created in 1968 there have been just three holders - F Attwater of SEGAS BC [1968-69], D G Atkins of Preston Manor BC [1970 - 1990] and K Fennell - originally of Woodingdean BC but now with Preston BC - who has been in post since 1991
Although much of the early history of the League’s organisation - prior to 1963 - has been lost this is currently being researched in an effort to restore the full details. Any information on the missing information would be welcomed by the League’s Hon. Secretary.
