HONG KONG ANNUAL REPORT, 1954
Triangular interport matches between Formosa, Macau and Hong Kong were held periodically and have assisted in the improvement of play. In order to im- prove the standard of European players in the Colony, which is noticeably inferior to that of the Chinese, the Hong Kong Table Tennis Association is forming leagues and intends to hold international competitions to stimulate a healthy rivalry.
Lawn Bowls
Hong Kong had a very good bowling year. A lawn bowls team from Hong Kong participated in the Empire games for the first time in 1954, and was beaten by the winning team. A team made up of Hong Kong residents on home leave regained the Esplin Cup when it defeated the Wanstead Club in July. A league was started for women bowlers, the first in Hong Kong.
