History: The bowling league organized games between teams of various groups across campus at a bowling alley in downtown Fredericton until Lord Beaverbrook furnished two bowling lanes on campus in the basement of the Lady Beaverbrook Gymnasium.
Activities: Teams played a ten-game regular season schedule and playoffs, and topped off by a banquet at the end of the season. Games were played on Saturday afternoons.
Note(s): The COTC rifle range in the Lady Beaverbrook Gymnasium was converted to a bowling in 1947, providing students a low priced alternative on campus to bowl.
