As I mentioned previously..NO ONE is representing Bendigo. The association chose not to offer the spots to any of its members....
Why, I have no idea, but i'm not amused by the decision.
I wasn't asked either.
I only knew it was on from the forums but I wouldn't have bothered going anyway.
Wayne,
The reason the BTBA vetoed the idea was that originally this weekend was to be our Begonia Cup challenge against Ballarat, therefore not enabling our top average bowlers to qualify and also the short notice given.
Cheers

Ahem....I am your (Bendigo's) top average bowler. Not once have I ever been asked if I'd like to bowl the Begonia Cup, so that isn't an excuse for not offering me the bowl's representative Masters spot.
It would be nice to be asked once in awhile....
Wayne,
You weren't the top average bowler last time I looked at the yearbook, and you didn't win the Masters, which was the selection process by the Tournament Director for the Masters spot.
I suggest you check your facts and maybe ask the Tournament Director or the bowl Management before you air your differences in public.

There's a yearbook??? First I've heard of it. So tell me David..who was the high average bowler in Bendigo last year and what was their average?
I'm simply asking for an explanation, not an apology or any concessions.
Gee Greg - maybe it was me with about a 213, then Greg Brooks second. I think you may have been 3rd.
If you have any doubts why don't you check the facts at the bowl, when you are in there next. They have a full copy available.
And Wayne, I wouldn't expect an apology, although I think some others will be.
David
