An indoor bowls club is gearing up to celebrate its 40th anniversary.

Since it was formed in 1984, Hunstanton Oasis Indoor Bowls Club has garnered 127 members, a mix of novices and seasoned players.

It was set up following an invitation to the Ingoldisthorpe bowling club to play at the resort's Oasis Indoor Centre.

Since then it has enticed members from across 32 clubs to participate in its indoor leagues.

He was a member of the Ingoldisthorpe club which took up the initial invitation in 1984.
