April 1977 - One faction attempted to revolutionize the sport, by introducing Astroturf and electronic scoreboards, and moving the tournament to Crawley Leisure Centre. The BMBC refused to move the event from the Greyhound and held a rival event with two teams of Morris Men. The Greyhound as a venue proved to be more popular venue and carried on the tradition from then on.

i remember when i was a kid playing marbles on the streets of chichester in the mid 90s when my marble hero darren ray drove passed in his trademark rover 216
"hey kid" he said to me and fired a 1/2 inch blue catseye at me which i caught and from then on i have practiced every day since to become a champion marbles player just like my hero

it is a tragedy that the most beautiful marbs are often the most fragile and are only used in exhibition matches

im a shark. i tuck my thumbs into my hands and fumble around with the marbles for a few games, then take suckers for all theyve got. its usually not much but small change adds up after a while. ive got a special jar for all my winnings. im saving up for better marbles.
