Ken brings extensive experience to Coaching our Junior Squad having s won the Bowls WA Coach of the Year Award in both 2014/15 and 2015/16. Ken works tirelessly to get juniors playing in all clubs. He has been working with schools in the Morley area over the last few years attempting to make that vision a reality by running bowls programs with the aim of introducing under 18’s to the sport and giving them a taste of what bowls is like.
Clive also has a wealth of experience as the Regional Bowls Manager for Bowls Australia, the winner of numerous State and National Events including the most recent 2016/17 Champion of Champions Singles for a third time!
After watching the overall performances of all players at the State Under 18 Championships at Osborne Park Ken is confident that WA has the makings of an extremely competitive side for those National Championships.
Five training days have been scheduled and at the end of these practice dates players will be selected who have the necessary skill level required for a National Championship. All sessions will be held at the Morley Bowling Club. Please note further Team Training dates will be released once the WA State Team has been chosen.
