PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

It is with great pleasure that I have the opportunity to welcome everyone to our 2015 bowling season, both existing members and new members.

For the executive, the year truly is a year as we have meetings during the off season, preparing what we hope is a good season of events to come.There have been a few changes in personnel during the winter and I am hoping that more new people will become involved in helping to make the club a great place to spend time whether it is as a playing or a social member.

We need two positions on the executive to be filled, a secretary and a vice president. Please give it some thought and volunteer your services. There are lots of people to help, so don't be afraid to “jump in with both feet “.

The winter activities (lunch bridge, Military Whist, carpet bowling, and Tuesday bridge, and Friday nights) all resulted in a nice monetary addition to our bank account. Thank you everyone for supporting the activities and a much bigger thank you to all the amazing people who worked so hard to organize them.

The city of Beaconsfield is again always ready to help us with their support, for which we are very grateful.

I wish everyone a fun summer season, with lots of planned events, both bowling and social to keep us all out of trouble.

Marjorie Bastien

PLAYER RESPONSIBILITIES

SKIPThe skip has sole charge of the team and all players on the team should follow his/her instructions. The skip will decide all disputed points with the opposing skip within the Laws of the Sport of Bowls. The skip is responsible for the score card and to enter the names of all players on the card.

THIRDThe third will measure any disputed shots and tell the skip the number of shots scored for and against their team as each end is completed.

LEADThe lead of the team to play first in an end should deliver the jack and make sure it is centred before delivering the first bowl of the end. In conjunction with the opposing lead, arrange to clear the head by raking bowls at the end of each end.

In addition to the above, players can carry out any other duties assigned to them by their skip. (Except completing the scorecard)

29

PLAYER ETIQUETTE

Lawn bowling should be played in a spirit of good sportsmanship with common courtesy. Begin and end each game with a friendly handshake to all members of both teams.

As soon as each bowl comes to rest, possession of the rink is transferred to the other team. By the time a player’s bowl comes to rest, he/she should be behind the mat or behind the head.

Players of each team not in the act of playing or controlling play should stand well behind the head or mat. A player on the mat should not be interfered with, annoyed or have his/her attention distracted in any way by an opponent. Players behind the mat should not talk while a player is on the mat.

Thirds decide the number of points. If you are counting, your opponent will do the measuring and both must agree on the outcome. No bowls should be disturbed or kicked away without the agreement of both thirds. Do not dwell too long on the mat or in protracted conferences. Do not follow bowls to the head unnecessarily.

All bowlers should have a working knowledge of the WBB laws of the game and the by-laws of the QLBF.All players must ensure that the greens are not damaged. Make use of screens, if necessary, to protect the playing surface.

30

DRESS CODE

CLOTHINGMen - slacks or walking shorts (shorts not more than three inches above the knee). Women - dresses, skirts, slacks, culottes, Capri pants or walking shorts provided the apparel is not more than three inches above the knee. A team may wear any combination of the apparel mentioned.For club competitions, wear white tops and bottoms except for St. Jean Baptiste, when you may wear blue tops, and Canada Day, when you may wear red tops. For invitationals, teams may wear their club colours so long as all members of a team are wearing the same colours. Club crests are permitted. Subtle crests of a personal or team sponsor are permitted subject to prior approval of the Federation.

FOOTWEARTeam members shall wear regulation footwear according to WBB regulations. No open toed or heeled shoes will be permitted without a medical note of exemption. Change to your lawn bowling shoes before going onto the greens to prevent the spread of fungal diseases from the outside.

HATS AND VISORSHats and visors may be any colour and need not be uniform for all members of a team.

SCREEN POLICY

This will confirm the club’s policy on the use of SCREENS (GROUNDSHEETS)

1. The use of screens shall be at the discretion of the skips, except whenever the convener announces that screens must be used. The use of screens is recommended whenever it appears appropriate, i.e. whenever the greens are soft after a recent rain, most mornings, because of heavy dew, or when divots and/or chipping is occurring.

2. Law 19.1.5 of the Laws of the Sport of Bowls states that the controlling body may decide on the use of groundsheets before the start or at any time during play. Groundsheets should be securely fastened to the surface of the green using flat headed pins that do not stick up from the surface, and sheets should stay in the same position until the end of the game.

3. The policy of BLBC is that screens will not be fastened to the green. In addition, with the consent of both skips, the screens may be removed after the completion of each end. It is recommended that the screens be placed at random lengths in order to spread the wear and tear on the playing surface. The exception to this policy will be for Federation events if the Federation requires adherence to the law of the game.

PUSHERS

At the end of bowling, please return the pushers to the storage areas reserved for them
