history
1. BC Duisburg was founded in July 1963 as the fifth bowling club in North Rhine-Westphalia after Bochum, Wuppertal, Düsseldorf and Essen. Since then, the home facility has been the Treff bowling center at Düsseldorfer Landstrasse 76 ( Lage ).
Egmont Kahnt, who was elected at the time, headed the association for over 32 years. After his retirement in 1995, Horst Comes became chairman. Horst Comes was succeeded in March 2007 by Horst Niedick as first chairman. Achim Grabowski became the second chairman. In June 2008 the board was restructured. Since then, Winfried Wessendorf, Michael Krämer and Egon Neudorf have been responsible for the interests of the association and its members as managing directors.
After just a few years, 1. BC Duisburg became a stronghold of German bowling alongside Berlin, Mannheim and Stuttgart. The outstanding player of that time was the national player Heinrich König , who died of a heart attack in 1989 at the age of 52.
