Cambridgeshire Short Mat Bowls

LAPEL BADGES

The committee has commissioned a new batch of lapel badges which are now available for purchase.  The association has purchased 51 of the new design badges which are only available from me.  The new round lapel badge is 30mm in diameter and bears the association logo and the full association wording.  The logo is on a black background with a Cambridge blue surround and all badges have a safety pin fitting for easy securing to Jackets, coats, bags or shirts.

The badges are available for purchase at just £2.50 each, which covers the manufacturing costs plus a modest profit per badge.  The committee has kept the cost as low as possible for the benefit of all members but the badges are open to all interested parties.

The new badge has been assembled by a company in Cambridgeshire in order that we stay local and support county businesses.

I recently attended a committee meeting and promptly sold 20% of the stock to members before having the opportunity to pass the badges to Linda so they have at least proved popular in both design and price.

Please continue to cheer up the County Treasurer by purchasing quickly.

SAFE BOWLS STATUS FOR COUNTY VENUE AT MARCH IBC




I am pleased to say that we have now gained a Safe Bowls Status Certificate for our county venue which means everything is in place for us to bowl in safety.  It has taken a while but means competitions can be run and we are approved to take part in the ICC as well.

When at MIBC I will always have the Risk Assessment with me so if any of you want to see the approved protocol please ask.

<sup>SAFE BOWLS STATUS FOR SECOND COUNTY VENUE



We have now gained Safe Bowls Status for us to use Tydd St Giles as our second County venue.</sup>  

I just want to make sure that you all know that you can show your availability for games in the calendar by using the website.  

Click on the drop down arrow next to your name at the top right hand corner of the front page once you have signed in and you will see "Match Availability".  Click on this and another page will come up with all matches and it gives you the chance to mark as appropriate.

This facility is useful to the County Captains when choosing their teams so the more of you who fill it in the better.
