PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
A warm welcome to all our current and new members. I look forward to seeing you out on the greens in yet another fun-filled season of lawn bowling and social activities.
With winter behind us, we can now focus on enjoying the sport we love for the next 4 months. Prior to the first bowl rolled at the start of our season, a tremendous amount of work goes into both planning and preparing the greens for our bowling enjoyment. For this reason, I would like to thank our Board Executives and Directors for all of their hard work and their dedication in getting it right for our members. And, to our many volunteers, both out on the greens and indoors at our social events, thank you, without your help our club could not continue to exist.
For our social members, this year you can expect to find increased opportunities to participate in a game of Bridge or social activities such as Bingo. We will also be extending our fall activities to include indoor Bocce bowling. There is plenty to do this year, so please make plans to come out and join us at all of our activities and events we have scheduled for you at the Beaconsfield Lawn Bowling Club.

PLAYER RESPONSIBILITIES
SKIP The 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.
THIRD The 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.
LEAD The 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)
31
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.

ELECTRICAL STORMS
Should an electrical storm be present in the area where thunder and or lightning are observed, players must stop play immediately and go indoors leaving bowls on the green until safe to collect.
PUSHERS
At the end of bowling, please return the pushers to the storage areas reserved for them
SCREEN POLICY
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.
