Noticeboard extract 1 - STATEMENT – CORONAVIRUS & THE OUTDOOR BOWLS SEASONSTATEMENT – CORONAVIRUS & THE OUTDOOR BOWLS SEASON FROM
• City of Lincoln League
• Lincoln & District League
• Cliff League
• Bowls Lincolnshire Section 2 Fours League
• Bowls Lincolnshire Section 2 ASC Metals League
The Meeting of all above League Secretaries was held this morning to decide
if it was possible to start the 2020 Season and play during July and August.
Most of the Clubs had been contacted to see if they would like to play league games in July and August.
The majority of Clubs said their members did not want to play in Leagues under the present conditions so there was no other option than to take the decision that the 2020 Season was cancelled.
To save time and money all League and Competition Entries will be carried forward to 2021.
All 2020 handbooks will be used for 2021. This will just mean adjusting some of the dates.
No new Competition Entry Forms will be sent this year so the 2020 draws will stay the same and if there are any new members wishing to enter Competitions for 2021, they will be placed on a reserve list.
Hopefully next year will be back to normal.

STATEMENT – CORONAVIRUS & THE OUTDOOR BOWLS SEASON
Based on the current Government advice & restrictions and given the recent statements by the relevant bowls national bodies (EBA & EBF), the following league committees have taken the decision TO CANCEL ALL OUTDOOR BOWLS LEAGUES AND COMPETITIONS UNTIL AT LEAST JUNE 30TH.
• City of Lincoln League
• Lincoln & District League
• Cliff League
• Bowls Lincolnshire Section 2 Fours League
• Bowls Lincolnshire Section 2 ASC Metals League
There will be a review of this situation by us all in early June, which will be guided by the latest advice from the Government & national bowls bodies at that time. Should the situation and advice/restrictions change we will look to try and get some bowls played, however should it not then the season will have to be cancelled in its entirety.
Without doubt the main priority is the health, safety and welfare of all our players and members. Given the age profile of many of our clubs it is important that we all pull together and help in looking after our members and encourage people to keep an eye out for each other at this time and in particular, those that live on their own. This could be things like:
• Shopping
• Collecting Medicines
• Appropriate Contact/Conversation – respecting the relevant 'social distancing' guidelines and advice
We all look forward to seeing you all in healthier and happier times.
With warmth and best wishes,
Brian / Alistair / Tony / Kris / Colin
Appointed Representatives of Lincolnshire bowling Association, City/District/Cliff Leagues & Bowls Lincolnshire
