As per usual Queenslanders leave it to the last minute. Maybe this years cost has put some people off?? I'll be putting in my nomination Friday and would hope a few more bowlers do as well.
So one has to stick it to the Victorians in their home state, it might as well be us

Can't answer that as several other people would have to be involved in a decision of that nature.
What I would like to see (if there are not enough nominations) is the committee sitting down with those people that do nominate.
I believe if they take the trouble to get their entries in they should at least be involved in any decision making process should there be less than 7 nominations.

looks like people are actually getting the behinds into gear. dropped my nomination in at about 2 today and there where 6 men nominations including mine. So it lookslike with 3 more days till close the men will be fine. But the women only had 1. So come on SQ ladies lets support our great state and get those nominations in. Would hate to see SQ womens team with 90% draftees.

I tend to agree with Andrew C about costs.
Bowling at this level is expensive. Throw in travel, bowling and accommodation costs of going to Rocky, bowling on conditions so far removed from Forest Hill's and for what reason, cost of bowling in your area champs and for what reason, coughing up another $1000 to $1200 for the privilege of staying with the team in Melbourne, throw in travel costs and sundries to get there and back and I think most would agree that this could be a considered reason why few are nominating - unless you are well heeled. The eligibility rules may be ruining this event.
Same goes for De Veer.

There was discussion regarding changing the roll-off to a single weekend (due to the small number of competitors), however as this is a sanctioned event that was not possible.
The Rachuig Co-ordinator for this year is Glenda Barry.
Mens Coach is Gail Torrens and the Womens Manager is Don Lindsay. A Coach has not yet been appointed for the Womens team, and a Manager is yet to be appointed for the Men.
Good luck to all those rolling-off at Ipswich and Milton.
