Vale Trevor Harker
Bowls Victoria extends its condolences to the family of Trevor Harker – the inventor of the Bowlers Arm – who passed away on Sunday, April 23, 2017.
In helping a mate by crafting an artificial Bowling Arm he created a device that has now helped thousands of bowlers all around Australia to continue in the sport they love.
A modest man, Trevor paved the way for the now multiple types of Bowling Arm Devices currently available.
Bowls Victoria recognised Trevor by naming the Interstate Bowlers Arm trophy between Queensland and Victoria “The Trevor Harker Shield” and the annual National Contest between the States always commences with a “toast to Trevor Harker” in recognition of his ingenuity and selflessness.
Well played Trevor.
