The latest guidance on the first phase of green opening can be found on the BCGBA website at https://www.bcgba.org.uk.. All Clubs should refer to this guidance before opening greens.

Update from Keith Andrews:

I have found out that if a Clubs in your League are not affiliated to B.C.G.B.A. by paying the the £35, if they get Insurance through Endsleigh Insurance they will not be Insured, this is because it is an agreement between the two companies.

When bowling starts & Clubs open there greens they must have Insurance in place.

If for any reason they are not opening their greens , they have to remember that the Insurance runs up to 30th April 2020 & would have to pay the full £45 for what ever period was remaining up to 30th April 2021.

As a County we have had expenses from 1st November 2019 to the day that bowling was suspended, we had to pay for printing of Lancashire Handbooks, Printing of all Affiliation forms & we had to pay B.C.G.B.A. for their Handbooks & other small fees that as a County we have to pay.

I am asking the Clubs to pay the full affilliation fee for this year, I am also looking to charge Clubs a reduced fee for next year.

I am keeping both Handbooks till next year to be distributed & with Lancashire’s to add a small updated book.

This would bring our County in line with some other counties..

Lancashire currently has a full strength home team with one reserve for the game against Derbyshire on 12 May but is three players short and no reserves for the away team.
