 RUNCORN LEAGUE 2025 AGM HAS BEEN RESCHEDULED FOR MONDAY 20TH JANUARY @ RUNCORN WAR MEMORIAL STARTING AT 19:15.

The 2025 Runcorn and District Bowling Association AGM will be held at Runcorn War Memorial Club on Monday 20th January starting at 19:15. 

The following proposals have been put forward for discussion and voting on at the 2025 AGM. As per rule 11 in the constitution, any amendments to these proposals need to be submitted in writing to the league secretary by the 30th November. Theses proposals have already been sent out via email to all club secretaries or club contacts on 5th November so this should have been passed onto their club members for comment or action.

 

1. The Tudor pairs were changed this year so that it meant if you got through,  you would be playing 3 games on the one day. I think for a lot of players this is a lot to ask of them and maybe that is why certain players did not enter the competition. 

 

 

 

2. The Murphy cup handicapping also changed to single members,  which added up to team handicap. 

 

Which in theory a team could put a number of players on with a high handicap this winning the game whereas before it was a team handicap which was discussed and agreed by all other teams that attended the meeting. 

 

 

 

3. A presentation night was voted against so do the players actually want this? or just an afternoon at the end of the season to receive their prizes, cups etc. which would in my opinion be more cost effective for the league and clubs would therefore have their monies in the bank ready for their accounts that year. 

 

Thank you
