The Bowls’ Big Weekend (BBW) website is now live and clubs can sign up. The BBW runs from Friday 26th May until Monday 29th May 2023. All registered clubs will receive a resource pack including posters, flyers, new bowler guides and balloons in support of their big day. You will also receive a Club Information Guide and the opportunity to access additional resources for use in support of your event including social media graphics, banners and other event materials. Take a look at https://www.bowlsbigweekend.com/ to see more details. You need to know which day(s) on the weekend you are going to be running your event(s) to register. The marketing materials for crown green clubs will be provided without the Aviva branding (as the BCGBA has a relationship with Endsleigh Insurance) and should be available soon.

Your Development Officer, Ian Gill, intends to hold a free online seminar for clubs thinking about taking part in the BBW (or holding an open day at another time) to give some hints and tips on how to go about planning for it and what should happen afterwards. Keep your eye out on this News Page for more details which will appear soon. If you are going to take part in the Bowls’ Big weekend and/or would like to attend the seminar please complete the short form below so Ian can contact you directly with details when they are available.
