Urgent COVID compliance requirements for members

As a result of the recent restrictions announced by the WA Government Members (over 16 years of age) will not be able to be selected to play pennants, to play social bowls, and even attend the Clubhouse or greens as from 31 January 2022, unless proof of double vaccination or a medical exemption is provided.

We need to collect this information as soon as possible. Keith Willett, the Club Member Registrar, and all Management Committee Members will be undertaking this task but you will need to take responsibility for providing that proof to one of them.

Management Committee Members are Clive Raymond, Carol Curtis, Greg Barry, Glenda Pickford, Trish Cooper, Barbara Lord, Andrew Groves, Chris Lewis, Martina Gericke, Ben Leggett, Coralie Downsborough and Chris Leggett.

Please take the opportunity to provide your proof to any of the above whenever the opportunity arises but in the meantime I can advise that:

on Tuesday 18th Carol Curtis will be available at the Club before Ladies Pennants;

on Thursday 20th between 10 to 12 noon Keith Willett and Clive Raymond will be available at the Club;

on Friday 21st and 28th Barbara Lord will be available at the Club from 5.30 pm particularly for Social Bowlers playing social bowls on those evenings;

on Saturday 22nd Keith Willett will be available at the Club from 10 to 11a.m. and Clive Raymond from 12 noon to 1.00 pm;

on Tuesday 25th and Friday 28thTrish Cooper will be available at the Club from 10 a.m. to 1.00 p.m. 

Proof of vaccination must be established by presentation of an Australian Government Covid 19 Certificate (on-line or hard copy + identification), the Medicare COVID 19 digital certificate or the Service WA app. 

Exemption must be by proof of exemption recorded on the Australian Exemption Register or by a temporary exemption issued by the Chief Health Officer of Western Australia or their delegate.

I am sorry to impose on members but there are heavy penalties for contravening Covid Regulations so we have no choice in the matter. Your cooperation and understanding will be appreciated. 

Clive Raymond

President
