PRESIDENT’S REPORT 2025
An eventful year for Manukau indoor bowls. Twelve months ago, we were uncertain as to whether we could continue. Numbers were dwindling and it was difficult to get people to commit to take up executive positions. San Reddy came up with the idea of the clubs hosting and running some of the tournaments to ease the load on the president and secretary. This idea was adopted and has been quite successful. So much so that with a little fine tuning we feel we should be able to continue along these lines.
I thank all those people at club level who have helped run these tournaments through the year. You have all done very well and between us we can keep Manukau going into the future.
We also withdrew from all rep competitions as it was getting more difficult to get enough players to make competitive teams. Again, this has worked well, and most people were happy with the arrangement.
Prize giving was once again held at Summerset by the Park and hosted by Christine Mitchell, Sales Manager. Many thanks to Christine and her daughter for this, as she was new to the job and picked up this arrangement at short notice.
Congratulations to all those who won events and to those who competed. Congratulations also to those who have won playing in other associations.
This year Rodney Mills was awarded a special trophy as he had reached fifty Manukau Championship titles and was the first person in Manukau to do so. Congratulations Rodney.
A special thanks to all our sponsors for their continued support, they are, Summerset by the Park , Acacia Cove, Bupa Wattle Downs, Susan and Brett Dyson Real Estate, and Mini shifts. Together they make a huge difference in the funding of our sport, and I would encourage you to support them where possible.
Unfortunately, Mini shifts have sold their business and will no longer be there to support us. We thank them for their many years of support and wish them well.
As this leaves us with one less sponsor if any of you have any ideas on who to approach who would be willing to give approximately $250 annual donation, we would like to hear from you.
Finally, I would like to thank all the members who have supported Manukau Association over this past year, once again the clubs who have hosted and run events and the members of the Executive Committee, We have worked well together and I believe have achieved a great deal.
Special thanks to Marilyn Baskiville who has organised and carried out a lot of work through the year, particularly in the last few months with the added pressure of the new constitution which is required for the Inc Society.
Special thanks also to Diane McCormack who, even though she is not a bowler, has been kind enough to act as treasurer for us. I would also thank Riet Van de Gulik for auditing our accounts so quickly and efficiently.
Thanks also to Margaret for all her assistance in seeing that things are completed properly and efficiently, without her help I could not have carried on as president of the MIBA.
Thank you all once again and I wish you all a very good Christmas and New Year. Have a good break and we look forward to bowling Successfully next year.
