Sad News

It is with regret to report the closure of one of the Former members of the Shropshire Premier League in Ford BC. Ford were the first team from outside the Premier League to successfully win a playoff in 2001 after beating Bylet. They finished a respectable 7th in their first season and regularly finished mid table in their few seasons. After only escaping bottom place by 9 points in 2009 they finished 9th or 10th in the following seasons. However after the 2012 season a few players left and they were forced to withdraw from the league and after a couple of seasons in the Tanners Shropshire Bowling League they have had to fold after 85 years. Everyone from the SPBL send their thoughts and wishes to all the members of Ford BC.
