63 The AGM is Coming Up Have you thought of being on a Committee? Why not start with a general committee first, just to get the feel of it and see if you would like to take something else on the following year. Or, just throw yourself in the deep end and be adventurous. You will never know the difference you could make unless you get involved. Speak to someone who has been on a committee and see what is involved; it could be something you have wanted to do for ages. Check the boards for nomination notices, fill them out and place in the appropriate box. May 9 th at 6:30pm 61 Issue 2, 5 Aug 17

86 SELECTION GUIDELINES 1 There will be 2 Selection Committee, one for Midweek Pennant and one for Saturday Pennant. Selection Guidelines a) A representative from each division on each committee would be ideal. b) The Bowls Director may attend a selection meeting, in a non-voting role, if requested by the selection committee or if required to resolve a selection issue. c) The panels will elect a member from the Saturday/Midweek committees to act as chairman of each committee. The chairman to liaise with the Board s representative on any issues that may need to be discussed by the board. d) Teams should be selected on Merit and Compatibility; however, some consideration needs to be given to the development of bowlers for the future. Bowlers need to learn how to lead or take other roles. Giving them that role while having an experienced mentor would be a good way of achieving this. e) The club should not become a "win at all costs" club. The selection committee should not ignore the needs of the players and their aspirations. f) Selectors should consider whether a player has just had an off day or is it a loss of form over a period of time. Skips may be changed if the need arises. g) Consideration should be given that players, who can only play on weekdays or weekends, be given preference for selection on those days. 84 Issue 2, 5 Aug 17

87 SELECTION GUIDELINES 2 h) Skips (one at a time) can be invited to comment on team member performances. If a skip wishes to comment on the performance of a selector, the selector should not be present. Under no circumstances should a skip have the final word on team selection. i) A team member can request a meeting with the selection committee prior to the meeting to discuss, in a calm respectful manner, any issue that may directly affect them. j) If a member still has a problem with a selection decision after meeting with the panel, they can appeal to the Bowls Director. Under normal circumstances the Bowls Director should aim to have the issue resolved prior to the next pennant game. This may require the selection panel convening a special meeting with the Bowls Director. If an issue is still not resolved it should be referred to the board. k) No member shall be present at selection meetings unless invited to attend. l) The selectors should always be aware of real or perceived, conflicts of interest. If necessary, they should excuse themselves from any direct involvement in decisions where a reasonable person would suggest there is a conflict of interest. m) Comments made in selection meetings should not be made public and should be kept in committee. n) Casual vacancies on the Selection Committees are to filled by the Board of Directors, not by the Selection Committee. 85 Issue 2, 5 Aug 17

97 Rationale Somerville Bowling Club recognizes that: Environmental (second-hand) tobacco smoke is a health hazard and that non-smokers should be protected from it. Role modelling can have a significant impact upon the junior members of the club. Smoke free areas make smoking less visible and less socially acceptable. Smoke free areas support smokers who are trying to quit as well as reduce their overall cigarette consumption. Outdoor smoke free areas help to reduce the amount of cigarette butt litter (reducing clean-up costs, fire risk and children s health risk due to swallowing discarded butts). Smoke free environments are advantageous in attracting new members as well as positively promoting the club in the community. New Victorian legislation, Tobacco Amendment Act 2016 (comes into effect on 1 August 2017), bans smoking within 10 metres of an outdoor dining area. It also mandates that e-cigarettes are to be treated the same way as traditional cigarettes. Accordingly, the following policy shall apply to all members, administrators, officials, coaches, players, spectators, visitors and other volunteers and/or or staff of the club. General Smoke Free Policy Page 1 Cigarettes, including E-Cigarettes and other tobacco products will not be sold, including from vending machines, at any time at or by the club. Coaches, players, officials and volunteers will refrain from smoking while involved in an official capacity for the club, on and off the field. No images of club volunteers, members, officials, coaches and players smoking at club-related activities are to be placed on social media. 95 Issue 2, 5 Aug 17

98 Smoke Free Policy Page 2 Smoke Free Areas The Somerville Bowling Club requires the following areas of the club s facility to be smoke free: All indoor areas All outdoor playing/training areas All spectator areas (standing and seated, covered and uncovered) All canteen, catering and eating and drinking areas Smoke free areas will be signed (where possible) and promoted in club materials. The designated smoking permitted area is restricted to the grassed area behind the top green and inside the main entrance gate and the gate near the barbeque. Smoking is only permitted in the area behind the barbeque when the smoking permitted sign is displayed there. Functions Club functions, including social and fundraising events and meetings, held at club facilities are to be smoke free. Club functions, including social and fundraising events and meetings, held away from club facilities are to be smoke free wherever possible. If provided, smokers may only smoke at outdoor designated smoking areas and are to dispose of cigarette butts safely before entering facilities. Invitations and advertising for functions, meetings and events will be promoted as smoke free. 96 Issue 2, 5 Aug 17

99 Smoke Free Policy Page 3 Non-compliance All club board members will enforce the smoke free policy and any noncompliance will be handled according to the following process: Explanation of the club policy and the Victorian tobacco laws to the person/people concerned, including identification of the areas in which smoking is permitted Continued non-compliance with the policy should be handled by at least two committee members who will use their discretion as to the action taken, which may include asking the person/ people to leave the club facilities or function.

Promoting positive smoke free messages through the club s social media. Displaying a copy of the policy in the club social rooms. Periodic announcements to members at functions.
