Dear All Section Members

1. Renovation of Indoor Green

Funding for remove of the carpets and the costs of an additional resin topping screed was approved by GC.  To ensure smoothness checking can be carried out at various stages during the rectification works and extra works, the period that the green will be closed has been extended.

Progammes have now been agreed with the contractors which mean the green will be closed on Monday 9^th July Monday and to be opened again for practice on Wednesday 7^th August 2018.  There may be some inconvenience to bowlers wanting to access to their lockers as the carpet and bowls furniture will be temporarily stored in the area near to the lockers.

Section members may be required to hire public indoor green as their home green for National Indoor Pairs during the close of the Indoor Green.  They can claim back the hiring fees from the Section’s Treasurer but they have to present the relevant receipts.

The Outdoor Green will be closed for maintainance from 3.7.2018 to 23.7.2018 both dates inclusive.

3. Re-claim of Lockers from In-active Section members and Section members not playing for the Club

We have previously collected those lockers occupied by the Absence members and allocated to the currently leagues players.  For the Second stage of the re-claim exercise we will collect lockers from those Section members who have not actively play for the Club in both Premier and Triple Leagues for over 5 years and those Section members who are playing for other clubs but occupying the Section’s lockers.

In early July 2018 the Section will issue letters to the above-mentioned Section members concerning the details of the re-claim of their occupied lockers through the Club Management.

4. Confirmation of Assigned Lockers

In early July 2018 Section Members who are currently occupied locker/lockers are required to complete a “Confirmation of Assigned Lockers Form”.  The Teams and Conditions of lockers Allocation and its’ Subsequent Controls have been clearly stated in the form.  Section members are required to fill in the location of their lockers.  In addition, we will also collect Section members’ contact details so as to up-date our contact list.  Our sides Captains will assist in the distribution and collection of the Forms.
