Bowls Scotland decided not to issue badges to club Presidents from 2011.

These badges indicated the year the club President was in office. Presidents were honoured to received them since it recognised their special year.

The Association decided that their Presidents should continue to receive this memento of their presidency. Consequently a badge has been ordered and when received will be issued to club Presidents.

Badges will either be posted to clubs or hand delivered by GBA Directors. Most badges will be presented at club opening days.

In all competitions, except championship games which are covered by rule 5, players who have played in a competition and been substituted in that competition can be re-instated back into that competition.

1. All championship and competition ties except finals
a) Grey or black trousers
b) White dress shirt & club tie or collard coloured polo shirt
c) Bowling shoes
d) Players may arrive in non-bowling attire and change into bowling clothing prior to playing on the green.

2. All championship / competition finals
a) Grey or black trousers
b) White dress shirt & club tie
c) Club blazer (optional)
d) Players may change into a collard coloured polo shirt before playing in the competition. After the game players must change back into a white dress shirt & club tie prior to any presentation of prizes.

Note: In championship finals, souvenir polo shirts are provided by our sponsor.

c) Bowling Shoes

Failure to comply with any of the above will result in the player(s) elimination from the competition. In all team or side games, all players wearing tops must be dressed the same.
