Can't say I really enjoyed bowling in the collared shirts and trousers back then either, but I do agree that the A/C never worked back then!
How's it going Wendi?

Bring a couple pair of shorts Alan. Nobody's got off their arse to fix the Air-Con since last year.

Well, it would be up to the Tournament Directors to stipulate, but I think we've pretty much established that they should be tailored shorts.

The Pigs Rule!!
This is a great poll!
I do think shorts should be allowed but only in high heat. I think it looks professional wearing pants but as someone who will sweat at the drop of the hat. I would prefer to wear pants on hot days.
But saying this I still believe that if the weather is not extremly hot then bowlers should be able to put up with bowling in pants. That is my what I think anyway!

Thank God that TBA doesn't advise Tennis Australia on appropriate attire for tennis or even the football! (Bring on footy players in short shorts!!!) Gees even lawn bowling is more flexible.
Come on guys! We are trying to make bowling more attractive for bowlers. Stop keeping us in the dark ages with your futile policy. Get with 2007, not keep us in 1960. Bring in color and personalities, the more rules that you put in front of people the more reasons you give them NOT to participate.
No shorts, no De Veer, higher registration fees makes other sports look better and better.
Get with the program and into the new Millenium.

for the future exposure of our great game we need to get with the times and upgrade our sport, we should have the choice of wearing shorts, especially in tornaments a bowler could be in a centre all day in hot conditions

Some bowlers prefer to bowl in either long or short sleeves and some prefer short or long pants. It's not a weather issue but more so a comfort one.
Wouldn't have thought shorts a big deal as long as it was specified that the distance from the knee would have been maybe 5cm, which should apply to both men and women.
I hope it won't be too long before the dress code moves into the 20th century. Not that I'm insinuating that there is a closeness in profile but tennis players, for example, have there uniforms sponsored.
Just my thought.

I dont see why men cant wear shorts. DRESS shorts and for team events, possibly have the whole team wearing them or the whole team wearing pants? It looks neater however the debate will then begin on which, jus as it does for ladies skirts, shorts or pants? U guys ready for that? Big decision.....
