Association Secretary and Competition Secretary required

Your County needs your support

Since 1935 this association has been the figurehead for bowlers in the Bristol region. Our aim is always to promote and foster the game of bowls through the organisation of local competitions and competitive games against other County Associations. 

Like many other County Associations we have in recent years experienced the reluctance of people to join our committees and to help in its organisation.

This last season has been a particularly difficult one for the Officers of the City and County. Several of them have had personal or family health problems. The resignation of the Competition Secretary early in the season and the subsequent resignation of the Secretary partly due to the increased workload has placed a severe strain on our ability to keep the association's activities going. Fresh support is essential if we are to continue.

Specifically two key roles are now vacant:-

County Secretary & Assistant Secretary.
This essential role organises the internal activities of the Association and is our main link to Bowls England and clubs in the Bristol area.

Competition Secretary & Assistant Secretary.
The Association owns some magnificent silverware that is awarded every year to the winners of our numerous competitions. It would be a catastrophe if this activity should cease. We face the possibility of there being no more Clarence Davey and no more individual Championships.

Unless someone offers to lead this activity before the Annual General Meeting then it appears that there can be no competitions held in 2019.

If you are interested in playing a part, however small, in the future of this Association please contact Roger Trueman (rogerjtrueman@outlook.com) or inform your Club's Chairman/Delegate. Without your help this Association could cease operating.
