Los Angeles Metro Telco Bowling League turns 100!! Started in 1911, Telco Bowling league was only open to employees of the local phone company, and only to men. The first president of the league was W.W. Bunton. The Telco League of today is required to have at least one woman and bowlers no longer have to be employed by the company to bowl. They have changed bowling centers many times in those 100 years, but have been at Pickwick Bowl in Burbank, California for the past 35 years.
Stay tuned for more interesting bowling news!!
