CORONAVIRUS APDATE

To All Members

The Board has agreed to allow our members to practise at times and days of their own choice.   

However, this comes with a huge responsibility on every member who practises, to do the right thing. I urge you all, to do the right thing and abide by the rules we have adopted which are displayed around the clubhouse.   

If only ONE person does not abide by these rules we will have no other option but to close practise sessions down completely.

Please do the right thing and enjoy the freedom of practising at times and days that suit each individual member.

TO ALL MEMBERS

PRACTICE/ROLL-UPS AND EASING OF RESTRICTIONS

Following the successful trial of practice/roll-ups over the past 2 weeks, the Board has decided to enable members to book yourselves in for practice/roll-up sessions. This will commence from Saturday 13 June 2020.  This means that members MUST implement the following procedures when attending the club for practice. Everyone’s co-operation and goodwill will result in a level of autonomy for members deciding when to come to the club for a practice/roll-up. Failure to follow these procedures will inevitably result in the closure of the greens for all.

Procedures which MUST be adhered to are as follows:

• Only the southern asphalt carpark gate to be used to access the greens.
• Use hand sanitiser upon entry and when you leave.
• The booking sheet and essential supplies will be placed in the main foyer of the clubhouse. Access to the foyer is with your club key.
• Complete the booking sheet for all attending with details including date, start time, members name, phone number, green and rink number, finish time. This form must be fully completed in case a COVID-19 issue arises.
• If you are unwell or have cold and flu-like symptoms, please do not attend. Members in High Risk Categories should strongly consider their individual situation in deciding whether to participate or not.
• No more than 20 members per green, with up to 4 members per rink, 5 rinks per green able to be used, with 1.5 metres between each one. Rinks will already be set up.
• Mats to be handled by one and the same person at each end. Disposable gloves will be available for your use.
• Jacks to be moved by foot only, no rolling of the jack.
• Physical distancing of 1.5 metres must be maintained at all times. No touching of other members bowls, no high fives, no hand shaking. No gatherings before, after or during your practice.
• When you finish, you must spray disinfectant on mats, clean jacks with alcohol wipes and put away on trolley. Last person to lock up trolley.
• Wipe down hockey /walking sticks on edge of green with alcohol wipe, if you have used them.
• Hand sanitise on way out, go to your car or transport and go home. Lock the gate if last one leaving.
• There must be no spectators, non-bowling family members etc. on the club grounds
• Toilet facilities may be used, however the disability access toilet facility construction is currently happening and access may be limited for the next month.

Remember the above requirements are about keeping our members as safe and healthy as possible, with each of us having a responsibility to ourselves and each other.

Yours sincerely

Barry Oswald
