In Lawn Bowls it is frowned upon to let others know of your acheivements with such terms used like 'dont post your resume online,' stop big noting yourself etc etc. These comments come mostly from those that will never win anything themselves but they do stop a lot of people telling anyone what they have won.
What we need in lawn bowls is a Players stats site which lists players acheivements in regards to Club Titles, Group Titles, State Titles, Rep games etc
This can be managed by the players themselves. I like to show an interest in everyones acheivements. For some people a couple of lines may cover their acheivements but many other players would have pages of acheivements. It appears to me that everthing to do with Lawn Bowls at State level shrouded by secrecy. You have to wait to the day after the event to know it was even on unless you are directly involved or know someone playing. The forum has made the world a little smaller place however it is still a big issue in Victoria where everything is run secretly.
Something simple like the following:
Players Name:
DOB:
Current Club:
Club Titles(would include Club and team mates):
Group Titles:
Tournament wins:
State Titles:
Representive games:
I would like to look up a guy like Barrie Close and actually see what he has acheived in his bowls career.
Some of the more brainer PC literate people could easily set up a site where someone could register and maintain their own profile.
Only an idea
