Disabled
World Bowls
Championships
Our Burnside Bowls club member Bruce Wakefield has been selected to play in the World Disabled
Bowls which is being held in Wellington during the month of February 2015.

To assist Bruce to cover costs the Burnside Bowling Club is holding a fund raising event this coming
Friday 30th January at 5pm.

A recent news release indicated Bowls New Zealand were not contributing or supporting the running
or management of this major event.

It should be noted Bowls New Zealand are making a significant contribution to the Disabled World
Bowls Championships and are providing staff time and expertise to assist with the International
Bowls for the Disabled Organization.

This involvement has been ongoing since November 2013 and in January 2014 the IBD accepted
the conditions under which Bowls NZ would assist which included Trevor McCornish being operation
manager for the event.

It should also be understood Bowls NZ are not responsible for any financial commitment but will use
its best endeavours to support the organizing committee to raise funds.
