Competitions Sponsorship

Please Support our Sponsors...

Bowls Leicestershire has for many years been well supported by businesses as sponsors of the production of our Annual Yearbook.  Due to the uncertainty of the Covid19 situation in 2021, we will not be printing our Yearbook.  The website will be a key feature of our communications in the coming year.
This website has become a prime method of communication with our Clubs and also our affiliated players who take part in County rounds of National Competitions as well as County Competitions run by Bowls Leicestershire as the controlling body. We hope all the players visiting our Competitions and Fixtures pages will positively support our sponsors.

Ladies Website Patrons / Sponsors...

The Ladies Section of Bowls Leicestershire have for many years supported county bowls by becoming patrons of the Yearbook. As we are not printing the yearbook in 2021, the ladies have transferred their patronage to the Website production.

Ladies Competitions 2024

All information required for Clubs to enter players in 2022 County Rounds of National Championships and the County Competitions is now available.

2024 COMPETITION DATES (PDF)

Championship Formats 2024

FORMATS for playing Championships qualifying for the Nationals have been changed by Bowls England as a result of feedback on the formats for 2021.

CHANGED

  • Pairs = 4wds, 18 ends
  • Triples = 3wds, 18 ends
  • Open Fours = 2wds, 18 ends
  • Senior Fours = 2wds, 18 ends
  • Junior Pairs = 4wds, 18 ends

UNCHANGED

  • 4wd Singles = 4wds, 21 shots
  • 2wd Singles = 2wds, 21 ends
  • Junior Singles = 4wds, 21 shots

Important Notice

Qualifications for National Championships have been changed to ensure that only 48 players in total attend Leamington Finals going forward.  This means that the 13 Counties with the most entries in any discipliane will have 2 qualifiers and the remainder will have only one qualifier.

The County will organise the Championships accordingly and therefore Qtr and Semi-Final days may need to be amended once the entries are known and advised to BE.


COMPETITION MATCH RESULTS

NO SCORE CARDS issued... players taking part in Championships and Competitions will need to provide their own score cards for matches, unless at a County run event, such as 2wd Triples Days, Champion of Champions Days and Patrons Day.

The WINNER of Championship and Competition matches must telephone the result to the Area Secretary or Contact as noted on the draw sheets.

Behaviour in Competitions and Matches

Leicestershire has a tradition of fair play and courtesy to opposition players.  Please note that guidelines on behaviour are no longer in the County Yearbook.  These guidelines are noted here and access to a PDF format that you can download and print is available from this page.  It is right and proper for us to mantain a stance on behaviour without resorting to additional rules to those provided in the Laws of the Sport of Bowls and Bowls England Regulations 50-70: Appendix C: Code of Conduct for Competitors in Bowls England National Championship/Competition Finals.  Please note that the nature of Misconduct is covered in Bowls England Disciplinary Regulation 9.


In addition... a guidance booklet is available from Bowls England.  We recommend Clubs purchase copies for New Bowlers as an Introduction to the game.


This booklet has been compiled with the aim of pointing out what is expected of you as a member of your County Organisation and your Club, your general attitude to your fellow bowlers and of course guidance on playing the game.


A document on Behaviour in Support of Fellow Bowlers is available to Clubs and Individuals on the DOCUMENTS & DIARIES page.
