The Bowling League was formed to take over from a struggling papermakers Bowling League. The Papermakers Bowling League started in the early 1900's for paper mills all over the north west. When the league was struggling for teams the league adopted the 6 singles and 2 doubles format. In 2015 there were only 6 teams so the committee decided to call it a day.  It was a shame to dissolve the league after all the history that had gone before it so Rick Riley and Dave Farnworth decided to take it on. Coleman and Milne sponsored the league since 2016 which was appreciated by all who play in the league. In 2024 Baxters Removals took over the sponsorship so the name of the league was changed to Baxters Removals Community Bowling League. There are now 12 teams in the league with over 200 players who like the format of the league and enjoy playing in it.
