Bowling News
Yesterday we shared with you a response from the Secretary of Kippax BC regarding the threat to bowling clubs by Leeds City Council. We are now aware that the Yorkshire CCGBA Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Steve Cochrane, is circulating copies of this response and adding his own views on the situation. This is a copy of the CEO's comments.
As you are aware there has been much on social media over the last few days regarding Leeds City Council's decision to single-handedly attempt to wipe out the sport in Leeds.
I have been in touch with several people over the last few days, one of whom is Rob Earl who has put the attached together, he has asked if I can circulate. Rob has carried out research on Leeds CC flawed argument I have studied their biased submissions, which at best it is fiction, we cannot allow this mis-information to be the catalyst for the loss of bowling greens.
If you can ensure ALL your club members are aware of this terrible situation, don't fall into the trap that it might not happen in your area I am sure ALL councils are waiting to see how this pans out before making their own cuts.
Watch out for further updates
Steve Cochrane
YCCGBA CEO and Registrar
