ARE YOU AN RSL MEMBER?

WOULD YOU LIKE TO PLAY RSL LAWN BOWLS?

The Waverley RSL Lawn Bowls Section are currently looking for new members to participate in the various Victorian RSL Lawn Bowls Association scheduled events

Each year, the Association conducts a calendar of events which include the annual State Fours, State Triples, Challenge Day, Anzac Commemoration Tournament and the Duke of Edinburgh Shield weekend away tournament. They also conduct trials to select a team of bowlers to represent the State of Victoria in the RSL National Carnival, which is conducted every year, and in a different State each year

The Waverley RSL Lawn Bowls Section have a membership of around fifty regular bowlers, but we still need more members to represent our Sub-Branch in the various events.  These events (except the Shield) are usually played on a Monday at various Clubs, and are nominated events, which means you enter your own team

DETAILS FOR NEW MEMBERS

WHO ARE WE?

We are a section of the Waverley RSL Club Membership, and are lawn bowlers; Ladies or Men, who are also affiliated with Bowls Victoria

We were formed about 28 years ago for the purpose of competing in the various lawn bowls events being organised by the “Victorian RSL Lawn Bowls Association”

We have an elected Committee of eight members, whose main task is to organise and run the social and bowls events, and select sides for participation in the “Duke of Edinburgh Shield” competition.  We also encourage and assist members to enter the various other “nominated” events associated with the Victorian RSL lawn bowls calendar

MEMBERSHIP

Members must be a fully paid up Service or Affiliate Member of any RSL Sub Branch, and also a member of a Bowls Victoria Affiliated Bowls Club

Our membership numbers in 2017 are around the 50 mark

FUNDING

Members pay an annual subscription, which at present is currently set at $10.00

We are fortunate to receive sponsorship from the Waverley RSL Sub-Branch to assist with our entry into the Duke of Edinburgh Shield and ANZAC Commemoration tournaments, but other than that we don’t have any other source of funding

When representing the Waverley RSL, our members are to wear the official Waverley RSL Bowls Section club shirt which is available at a discounted price
