Important Notes:
Late entries may not be accepted:
All re-accrediting applicants, having submitted the appropriate forms fully completed will be sent, in advance of the relevant dates/times, a set of questions to be completed (preferably at home prior to attending), leaving only the practical on-green presentations & assessments to complete. They will also receive the new “Officiating Manual for Markers, Measurers & Umpires”. 

New Marker, Measurer and National Umpire applicants will be sent the new “Officiating Manual for Markers, Measurers & Umpires”, as well as preliminary documentation outlining the learning outcomes expected for the level applied for.

All applicants will be required to provide their own ‘Laws of the Sport Of Bowls, 3rd Edition, January 2015’ (A number of the Law books will be available at the Sessions @ $9.00) The new Officiating structure is based upon active participation and continuing assessments, so all aspirants must attend all relevant Sessions to be accredited. Anyone only aspiring to Marking, Measuring or re-accrediting as Measurer may attend all sessions as observers should they so desire. New Umpires MUST attend & accredit at ALL 3 sessions.
