Welcome to the 2024-2025 Bowls Season
Aswe embark on a new season of bowls, I want to extend a warm welcome to all returning and new members.
Our Club’s success is built on the dedication and enthusiasm of members and I am committed to fostering an environment where everyone feels valued and inspired to participate. I encourage all members to get involved and make the most of what our Club has to offer. Whether you are a seasoned player or new to the sport there will be plenty of opportunities to play, learn and socialise.
Our Club continues to offer coaching sessions focusing on honing skills, refining techniques and developing effective strategies. Our experienced coaches are here to guide you to success.
We have made some upgrades to our playing facilities from our well-maintained grass greens to a new synthetic green. This will enable bowls to be played in all weather conditions, everything is set for a great season.
Thank you for your continued support and passion for our Club. Looking forward to seeing you on the greens and working together to make this a great season.

About this Fixture Book
Every attempt has been to record events accurately, but fixture errors and changes are almost inevitable and are subject to change. Please take note of signs within the club or emails advising of alterations.
Thanks to:
Trevor Orton, Wendy and Peter Flack, Shona Carter, Neville Odell and Dan Greig for their assistance in compiling this booklet.
Guidelines for Pennant Selectors / Bowlers
Introduction:
• The Selectors will aim to select the best combination of teams within each division on club Pennant days to bring about on-green success for our Club
• The Selectors will attempt to be fair and reasonable in making Pennant selections
• The Selectors will treat every Pennant player with respect and, in return, expect every Pennant player to respect the Selectors regarding their decisions
• The Selectors will seek to adhere to the following guidelines in determining the makeup of divisions and rinks within divisions.
Guiding principles:
• A player’s ability/skill level will assist in determining the appropriate division to play in
• Playing history will assist in determining the appropriate division at the beginning of the season
• The previous season’s teams placements and results will be considered at the beginning of the season
• Compatibility with other players will be taken into consideration regarding rink formation
• Players with demonstrated people management skills will be preferred for a Skip’s position
• The Selectors will seek feedback from Skippers and team managers regarding the form of players
• Players will be advised prior to teams being announced of any demotion to a lower division. Reasons will be offered leading to the decision
• Promotions will not necessarily be advised prior to teams being announced
• The Selectors will take note of players who train regularly and seek to improve their overall game. “Reward for effort” will be considered in the selection process
• Rink stability will be highly regarded. One bad game will not lead to demotion. Selectors do not want players feeling anxious from week to week wondering if they will be retained in the rink
• Bad behaviour both on the green and off the green will not be tolerated. Respect for the Club, teammates and the opposition must always prevail
• The Selectors will listen to players who question their decisions. This will be arranged at a time conducive to both parties and be conducted in a respectful manner
• If a player makes him/herself unavailable for valid reasons it does not mean that the player will automatically be reinstated to the same rink/division on return.
