Alex Marshall

Alex was born in Edinburgh, Scotland in 1941 and was just a young lad when he began playing bowls entering league play already at 15. He immigrated to Canada when he was 29 years old and joined the Garneau Club in Edmonton. His involvement in the sport here in Canada continued for many years as both player and coach. Alex showed his passion for the sport by giving back in many leadership roles. His best and proudest memory was walking into the stadium at the 1986 Commonwealth Games in Edinburgh, Scotland.  Lawn Bowls Alberta is proud to induct Alex onto our Wall of Fame in the Builder category.

Margaret Fettes

Margaret was born in Scotland in 1945 and later immigrated to Canada. Her involvement in the sport here in Canada has spanned many years, and through her play and volunteer roles she demonstrated her passion for the sport. She has been involved in Lawn bowls as a player, a coach, an umpire, and a member on many committees including several Canadian Championship committees. Margaret was a coach herself but was also able to share her knowledge of coaching with others through her position as a qualified coaching course instructor. Margaret was also an umpire officiating over several years at the provincial and national levels, including being the Chief Umpire at the Blind Bowler’s Championships. We are proud to induct Margaret onto our Wall of Fame as a Builder and Athlete.
