Duty of care
January 26, 2012
I read with interest the BOWLSWA report of the Mens State Singles Final.
Apparently neither player was perturbed about the 42 degrees heat, so obviously the weather was not considered extreme and therefore no duty of care was required.
Congratulations to both players for putting on a great show, especially to Anthony for making it title number 4.

Scott Edmonds resigns
January 16, 2012
Scott Edmonds has resigned from the State squad. It is understood that he was unable to fully commit to to the program due to work committments.
Scott was very quick to say he fully supports the Coaching panel
and believes they are on the right path going forward to the Sides series.
It is very unfortunate for Scott who was unlucky to not have made the side last year, he has been on the edge of selection for the past couple of seasons and would have been in with a big chance to represent W.A for the first time at Qld's Broadbeach Bowling Club.

Withdrawals
a fair go for all required
January 11, 2012
We spoke recently of giving Frank McGrath and fellow bowlers a fair go.
In last week's Bedford Bowl he had two withdrawals on the Friday before the Saturday start of play, the first withdrawal came at 1.00pm, tho inconvenienced Frank got on the blower and quickly arranged for another side to fill in, ok late withdrawal sorted.
Frank received another call at 6.00pm, boy of boy!! of all times to receive another withdrawal with only 15 hours till start time. Where are we going to get a replacement team in such a short time span, a team already entered and committed for the weekend now may have to miss out on getting a game.
Next morning with the event due to start there were two other sides that didn't front and no courtesy call to say why they weren't in attendance after having rang Frank to enter a side
The team that had been organized the night before was in attendance and ready to play but because of the two withdrawals and two sides not showing up, had to miss out and go home. It was very inconvenient for all concerned and rather thoughtless for fellow bowlers.
So I repeat to people who enter these events how about some consideration and a fair go for Frank and fellow bowlers before you decide to withdraw so close to start time
or those that don't bother to turn up
Letter regarding State Squad additions
January 11, 2012
Well done to you Sherro for raising the issue in the first place.
You only put to paper what most of us were thinking.
It is pleasing to see the selectors are flexible and have acted for the
greater benefit of bowls.
I am a Wings Evans fan and would be proud to see him represent our State again. He
is an absolute gentleman, accepts the umpires decision, is committed to the
game of bowls and most of all is a champion bowler.
The same could be said for Messrs Caffell and Payne.
