IMPORTANT - LATEST - from the manager
|
|
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT MEMBERS NOTE THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION:
YOUR ENTRY TO THE CLUB IS ON CONDITION THAT YOU AGREE WITH AND ADHERE TO THE CLUB'S COVID POLICY & RULES.
As an additional precaution for member safety, from Monday 28th September, each and every time you enter the club you will have your temperature taken and must announce your arrival to a member of staff including an up to date telephone contact number. Anyone displaying a higher than normal temerature will be refused access to the club.
We would also encourage everyone who is able to do so, to download the new NHS T&T App to their smartphone and scan in the bar code on the Club ID notice as they arrive at the club entrance.
Following the Prime Minister's address to the nation on Tuesday 22nd September, the EIBA issued a statement informing affiliated bowls clubs that those who have implemented COVID-19 Secure protocols can continue to provide organised bowls for up to six persons per rink.
Multiple rinks may be used, subject to social distancing measures, BUT players are not permitted to interact with neighbouring rinks.
For clubs with a bar and/or restaurant, those areas are only permitted to be open between 05.00-22.00hrs with table service only.
Up to six persons per table but not permitted to interact with other tables.
The 2020-21 National Competition Programme is now cancelled. All entries will be transferred to 2021-22 season.
2019-20 Finals due to take place in Nov 2020 are postponed (to hopefully April 2021).
The Club will adjust it's covid procedures accordingly and run leagues and competitions of no more than Triples. Last orders at the bar will be 21:40 and drinks must be finished by 22:00.
As from Sunday 20th September 2020 the club's opening hours will be:
MON 9.45am - 8.30pm (8.00am when Grand Prix)
TUE 9.00am - 8.30pm (8.00am when Grand Prix)
WED 9.45am - 8.30pm
THUR 9.00am - 10.30pm
FRI 9.45am - 10.30pm
SAT CLOSED
SUN 9.00am - 1.30pm
LEAGUE BOWLING
The Bowling committee has decided that TWO BOWL TRIPLES will be played in the Morning Afternoon and Early Evening leagues. Matches will be 21 ends or 1 hour 45 minutes.
THERE WILL BE NO CANCELLATION of league fixtures allowed but temporary substitution rules for this season will allow captains to borrow players from teams in the same division or below to help alleviate any fixture difficulties. The League Secretary reserves the right to move fixtures as the Club requires and will notify captains accordingly.
The Club Committee will supply a number of volunteer Covid Facilitators to attend throughout sessions of League bowling for at least the first few weeks. These Facilitators will wear a club shirt and an ID badge and will be on hand to help members returning to league bowling safely and answer any questions members may have concerning the covid procedures and distancing guidelines within the club.
A reminder that at LIBC currently:
1. The wearing of a face covering upon entering the club is MANDATORY (Persons with a disability that prevents them from wearing a mask will be issued with an 'LIBC Exemption Badge' on confirmation of registered exemption)
2. The wearing of a face covering on the bowling green is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED but if you feel it impedes your ability to bowl it can be removed PROVIDED THAT SOCIAL DISTANCING AT A MINIMUM OF 2 METRES IS OBSERVED.
3. If you decide to remove face coverings on the bowling green you MUST BE ON THE MAT or ON THE 'STARS' provided to meet the 2m Distancing rule.
This will be strictly enforced.
We now put our trust in you – our members to help us. We need you to take responsibility and ensure that our COVID-19 Secure Policies are followed. Failure to do so will put people - and ultimately the future of LIBC - at serious risk.
