2018 AUSTRALIAN UNDER-18 CHAMPIONSHIPS
welcome Welcome to the 2018 Australian Under-18 Championships On behalf of Bowls Australia, I wish to extend a warm welcome to the players and supporters of the 2018 Australian Under-18 Championships being held here at the wonderful Capalaba Sports Club in Queensland. The Australian Under-18 championships is always a very exciting time of the year, as we get a first-hand look at bowls’ champions of the future competing over four wonderful days of competition. Many world champions and Commonwealth Games gold medallist began their illustrious careers at these junior championships and I have no doubt that throughout the four disciplines and across each state and territory, new national and international stars of the future will emerge this week. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank the Capalaba Sports Club for hosting this event and acknowledge the officials and volunteers who ensure events such as these are staged successfully for both participants and supporters. I would also like to thank Bowls Queensland for their wonderful assistance in staging this event and also the staff at Bowls Australia who have contributed many hours preparing for this year’s championships. Finally, I would like to congratulate each and every one of the players who are present at these championships and wish them the best of luck; I trust you will enjoy your stay in Queensland.

2018 AUSTRALIAN UNDER-18 CHAMPIONSHIPS
WHERE STARS ARE BORN The Australian Under-18 Championships is an exciting event on the Bowls Australia calendar as the country gets to see first-hand the wealth of talent we have coming through the ranks.
Not every competitor will leave these championships with gold medals, and trying to predict a winner is near impossible, but what we do know is the 75 players who will compete this week will form new rivalries on the green, but more importantly friendships that will last a lifetime off the green.
Each State and Territory are represented with only the best of the best selected to go head-tohead at these prestigious annual championships.
Queensland dominated the last Australian Under18 Championships and have the home ground advantage; however having lost a number of players who have turned 18 in the past year, the door is open for new faces to fly the flag for the home state.
Past and present Australian Jackaroos, world and Commonwealth Games gold medallist and even National Coaches have completed their bowling apprenticeships representing their states at this event.
Both Australian Open Under-18 Singles champions Jono Davis and Jesse Cottell have graduated from the junior ranks; however last year’s girls’ singles champion Kirra Bourke is back representing Victoria and considered a favourite to win back-to-back titles; whilst in the boys’ singles field keep your eyes on Jake Rynne (QLD) who is excelling here in his home state.
The Australian Under-18 honour roll is littered with the sport’s biggest, Lynsey Clarke (nee Armitage), Aron Sherriff, Cameron Curtis, Kelsey Cottrell and Natasha Scott have all stood in the shoes of this year’s competitors; whether it be their first Australian Championships or their last, big things start here. Take a moment to reflect the journey of Australian Jackaroo Rebecca Van Asch, arguably in the form of her career, winning the 2018 Australian Open Singles, back-to-back Australian Indoor Championship titles, three world titles and dual Commonwealth Games gold medals at the 2018 Gold Coast Commonwealth Games; something missing from the trophy cabinet is an Australian Under-18 title, but ask her that now she would merely say that juniors was her stepping stone to bigger and better things and only made her work even harder for her success.
For the first time in the history of the Australian Under-18 Championships, Bowls Australia will live stream a match from every round, including gold medal matches on finals day, through Rinkside Live, which can be found on the Bowls Australia Facebook page. Be sure to share these videos on your Facebook pages to help Bowls Australia promote this great sport; and what better promotion than the best of the best junior players in the country so be sure to spread the word!

Bringing Bowls to Kids Have you seen Bowls Australia’s exciting new junior participation product called Jr. Jack Attack, aimed at bringing the sport of bowls to kids around the nation? Jr. Jack Attack is designed to enable kids to participate in an engaging format which is both fun and inclusive and it has already been rolled out in hundreds of clubs and schools around the country. Importantly, Jr. Jack Attack can be conducted on a range of surfaces, including greens, carpets, concrete, wooden floors and just about anything else that is flat, which removes the restrictions of requiring a bowling green to introduce new audiences to the sport. Having identified the limitations of children using full-size bowls that have been designed for adults, the Jr. Jack Attack initiative comes in the form of a kit that includes a carry bag, 32 lightweight rubber bowls, eight jacks, 50 cones, a target score mat, eight stepping mats, activity cards, and clubs who purchase two kits will also receive a complimentary scoring wedge, providing all the tools for a whole school class to participate concurrently. Bowls Australia’s General Manager of Bowls Operations Tony Sherwill said the initiative will provide the sport with a vehicle to attract new younger participants, and measures have been established to help retain them for latter periods, in line with Bowls Australia’s vision of “Bowls - the sport for life” and its mission “to grow the sport of bowls.” “Jr. Jack Attack aims to introduce children to the sport. Previously we have always tried to take kids to the club environment, but it is difficult to coordinate transport logistics and access to the greens, as well as availability of surfaces, so we’ve devised a program to run on any surface within the school environment,” Mr Sherwill said. “This will appeal to schools because bowls is the most inclusive sport available, there’s no advantage in being tall or short, strong or not so strong, male or female. It provides an opportunity for every child to play and compete, and it also fits in and aligns with
the Federal Government’s new Sporting Schools initiative - it can be played before, during and after school, and supports the Australian curriculum. Currently there are over 90 schools across Australia signed up to Lawn Bowls as part of the Sporting Schools program for terms three and four and we are confident these numbers will double next year. Most sports are very strong in the junior market but struggle to retain these players at the senior ranks. Bowls is the opposite scenario, we have a lot of adult Australians but we lack a junior audience; therefore Sporting Schools will enable us to attract a new market with the aim to retain them as adolescent and into adulthood. When we’re implementing the next level down, Bowls Australia’s participation program, based off the highly successful Australian Premier League format, Jack Attack is open to all age groups and has a social spin on what the competitive environment should be, and this new Jr. Jack Attack program fits in beneath that to help funnel an audience into the tiers above. There’s a good argument that there needs to be another level in-between Jr. Jack Attack and Jack Attack as a long term vision, which Bowls Australia aims to implement in the not too distant future. This will see Jr. Jack Attack evolve into a more structured children’s competition. “Kids that enjoy this Jr. Jack Attack initiative at school can then go play with their parents - one of the only sports where that is possible - in a competitive Jack Attack program, but the longer term vision of say three to five years is that there is an extension of the Jr. Jack Attack program where a large number of children in an area can play competitively against children their own age.” The Jr. Jack Attack kit is designed primarily for primary school age children, aged between seven and fourteen.
