In common with most Members Clubs - and in compliance with the Club´s membership of the FEB and FAB (Spanish Bowls Federations) - we have an elected Governing Board to oversee the running of the Club. The Board will normally convene on the last Thursday of each month and Club Members will be invited to submit items for the agenda TWO weeks before this. Minutes of each meeting will be circulated by email to all Club Members with a hard copy filed in the relevant folder in the Clubhouse
Governing Board posts have a FOUR year term, and consists of President, Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary and Ordinary Member
There is no limit to how many times any one Member can stand for election and it is possible for a single member to hold more than one Committee post.
There is also a Bowls Sub-Committee appointed by the Governing Board in line with the wishes of the Club Members as expressed in annual Elections. This consist of positions of Club Captain and Vice Captain. There is no limit to how many times a Member can stand for election. There is no automatic progression from Vice Captain to Club Captain. The final member of the Bowls Sub Committee is the Club Competition Secretary who holds a two year post.
Finally we have a Social Sub-Committee, appointed by the Governing Board
All Governing Board members have ONE vote regardless of how many posts they may hold. The Club President has the casting vote in the event of a tied vote.
