It reproduces a game played in 1934 at the Greater Vancouver Horseshoe Club. The scorekeeper was W.A. McKenzie, probably the greatest volunteer of the game in B.C. for that early period. It also gives us an idea of the caliber of play from the 1930's. Jimmy Porter was to be B.C. Provincial Champion later in 1945 and 1946. The 1934 B.C. Champion was T. Berry from Langley. But the 1930s were dominated by Art Kindlan who won 10 titles from 1931 to 1943. The scoresheet presented above was published in the 1982 Canadian Championships Souvenir Program. The Reyklin involved in the game is the father of Lloyd Reyklin who won the B.C. Provincials in 1996. To see the list of past B.C.
