Information for MembersYOUR
CLUB You have been accepted
into your club and are now a working part of it. At the outset don’t
believe you have only joined to play bowls. As every member assumes
responsibilities immediately he/she is admitted, you will find that you
have office-bearers who generously give their time and energy so that
you can play and enjoy the game. Be appreciative of them; do everything
you can to make their work as easy as possible; be punctual; willing to
abide by their decisions; support all social functions and such-like
organised for the good of the Club and your own enjoyment. The cost of
maintaining your club is ever exercising the thoughts of your
office-bearers. Without stable and sufficient finance no club can be
successful so you are asked to generously accept your financial
responsibilities and support all revenue returning activities. Never let your Club
down. Be proud of it and at all times put it before yourself. Do nothing
in your actions, words or appearance which will reflect against your
Club. Do your part to enhance its reputation so that it is known as a
fine Club. A green fee is payable
by each member for any organised game of bowls. The fee for special and
tournament games and for pennant players, both home and away, will be
set by the Board of Management. Watch for
announcements by the social committee of functions arranged throughout
the season. Funds raised by this committee are used to promote the
welfare of the club. Members should
familiarise themselves with the etiquette and rules of the game of bowls
and observe them at all times. The office bearers
elected by the members at General Meetings are listed in front of this
booklet and your support and encouragement will assist them to achieve
their main objective, i.e. the progress and well-being of the club. Etiquette Here
are a few tips which may help: “DO” ·
Learn
and understand the laws of the game as laid down by Bowls Australia. ·
Keep
appointment times to play your matches and advise your opponent and team
if unavailable to keep an appointment. ·
Always
conform to the correct attire for play. ·
Give
full support to your team and skip, play for the team not for individual
success. ·
Commend
good shots and generally encourage all players. ·
Always
watch the play, be interested without interfering, and be ready to play
in your turn. ·
Keep
still and silent while your opponent/s and other members of your team
are playing. ·
After
delivering your bowls retire at least one metre behind the mat. At the
head end take up a position behind the jack and well away from the head
unless directing the play. ·
Leads
hand the jack and bowl to your opponent after the mat has been placed.
If your opponent prefers otherwise then act accordingly. ·
Use
litter containers for any rubbish. “DON’T”
·
Wander
or move about the head or talk when a player is about to deliver a bowl.
·
Stand
in line with boundary pegs or on the edge of the green.
·
Argue
with the skip on the shot to play.
·
Give
advice to players from the bank. (Thirds should not advise the skip
unless the position has changed).
·
Dispute
the Umpire’s decision.
·
Drop
bowls on the green.
·
Kick
bowls away from the head before the head is declared.
·
