With one week left before nominations close, there are only 2 men and 4 women who have nominated for Rachuig this year.
On Monday night there is a TBAQ Board meeting at which time the other Board members will ask for an updated nomination list.
Several other people have indicated to us that they will be nominating and we would urge those people to do so asap. If the situation does not change drastically the future of any Rachuig Invitational Team may well be in doubt, and if the Invitational Team has to be canned this year the National body may well with-hold any future invitation to Qld to field 2 teams.
This is not a North/South issue, it is a matter which concerns the entire State.
This is not intended to be a whys and wherefores thread, it is simply telling it like it is. All of us involved in Qld Rachuig want to give Bowlers the best opportunity to represent the State.
Of course we cant make you bowl but it is worth pointing out that if you really love your bowling there is no finer experience than going away with a Team at the highest level.
We know that most of you have cars, families, mortgages, jobs and very little time or money to allocate, however those that do take the opportunity to join a State team will remember that week at the Nationals for the rest of their lives.
