Bowling News
News has just been circulated from the BCGBA about a new insurance policy for clubs, Leagues and Associations. A good price of £55 per annum per organisation has been negotiated by the BCGBA managing all the admin duties themselves. The BCGBA then collects payment from all such organisations and then pays one sum to the insurance provider so reducing the price and admin effort of Howdens the insurance provider.
We are then promised copies of the actual policy which is something that is likely to be a first to most clubs and organisations. Clubs need to be aware that the policy is the only cover provided for 12 months from 1 January 2025 and will run right through the calendar year. Clubs who are hosting Winter League matches on their green should note that the League expects that appropriate insurance cover is provided from 1 January 2025.
A copy of the notification letter from the BCGBA is provided and you can download a copy of this below along with a copy of a summary of the policy. We are told that a copy of the full policy will be made available on the BCGBA website in the New Year.
