On Sunday I bowled in the Victorian State Championships at Moorabbin and it was sad to see that what should be a prestigious event is a poor shadow of its former self.
If it was not for a group of very entusiastic Knox Junior bowlers the Squads run on the day would have been practically empty. Well done to all these Knox juniors on their bowling on the weekend. I hope all of you enjoy your participation in the sport.
My question is as this event is a prerequisite for all the official State Teams why has there been no mention of it on this forum. Although it was only the first weekend, with the Gold Coast event clashing with the final weekend and Victorian Masters, I was surprised to not see more of the elite Victorian bowlers their on Sunday. Yes their is next weekend and the final Saturday but it still was surprising.
Is this event now not improtant enough anymore for bowlers to bowl in?
Is it the fact it is being held so early in the year?
I would be interested to hear the thoughts of the other bowlers on this forum with regards to this as this event at least I believe deserves more.
