Dear members
On the 9th of December, Bowls SA announced their “No Jab No Play” Policy where you must be double vaccinated to play pennants and participate in State Event from the 10th of January 2022. This is not a club mandate but a Bowls SA mandate.
Bowls SA has modified Bowlslink the Sports software to track your vaccination status to facilitate this policy. We have three authorised people who can record your vaccination status on BowlsLink: Tony Weir, Kathy Hills, and Jose Gil.
So we are now asking all members, whether you are playing pennants or not, to present your vaccination certificate or show your status on your phone to one of these three people. This must be done by the 6th of January, for pennant players to allow us to update your status effectively and ensure you can play after the 10th of January.
The board has also decided to call a Special General Meeting to discuss the mandating of double vaccinations to enter the club. There will soon be a notice to convene this meeting on the 18th of January 2022 to discuss this matter.
Meanwhile, please bring your vaccination certificate or show your status to Tony Weir, Kathy Hills or Jose Gil as soon as you can.
We appreciate your assistance in this matter.
Regards
Jose Gil
President
