My Vision for your Club
Louise Kenward (Club Chair): My vision for your Club.
​
We have a new name, new logo and new kit, so I want to take this opportunity to outline my vision for the Club.
​
I believe that the way forward for Eastbourne Borough Indoor Bowls Club is both ambitious and inspiring. Achieving such a vision of success involves strategic planning, inclusive community building, and fostering a culture of excellence and support.
Here are some strategies and ideas that might help us realise this vision:
​
Building a Community of 400+ Members
-
Outreach and Engagement: Utilising social media, local media, and community events to raise awareness of your club. Partner with local schools, colleges, and community organisations to introduce bowling to a wider audience.
-
Open Days and Taster Sessions: Regularly organise open days and free taster sessions for different age groups and skill levels to attract new members.
-
Referral Programs: Encourage current members to bring friends and family by offering incentives for both the referrer and the new member.
​
Tailoring Bowling and Social Offerings
-
Diverse Membership Packages: Offer a range of membership options catering to social bowlers, club-level competitors, and those aiming for elite levels. This includes flexible playing times, coaching sessions, and competitive opportunities.
-
Development Programs: Create clear pathways for progression from social to elite levels, including coaching, workshops, drives and mentorship programs. Partner with local sports agencies or organisations for support, sponsorship and visibility.
-
Vibrant Social Scene: Regularly schedule social events, themed nights, and community gatherings to foster camaraderie and inclusivity. Consider amenities and activities that appeal across ages and interests.
​
Achieving Good Standing and Winning Trophies
-
Competitive Excellence: Establish a coaching team capable of nurturing talents from club to county level, with a clear focus on physical conditioning, technical skills, and mental preparedness.
-
Participation in Leagues and Tournaments: Ensure active participation in local, regional, and national competitions to raise the club's profile and provide competitive exposure to members.
-
Celebrating Achievements: Recognise and celebrate individual and team achievements both within the club and through local media channels to build a culture of success.
​
Fostering a Vibrant Youth Section
-
Youth Engagement Programs: Develop specific programs aimed at schools and youth groups, offering coaching, competitions, and social activities designed to be fun and engaging for younger members.
-
Mentorship and Role Models: Connect young players with experienced bowlers for mentorship, sharing experiences, and guidance both on and off the greens.
-
Invest in Youth Development: Allocate resources towards youth facilities, equipment, and coaching to provide a strong foundation for their growth and enjoyment of the sport.
​
Monitoring and Evaluation
-
Feedback Loops: Regularly gather feedback from members on all aspects of the club's operations, offerings, and culture to ensure they align with the diverse needs and expectations of your community.
-
Performance Tracking: Set clear, measurable objectives for membership growth, competitive success, and community engagement. Review these goals regularly and adjust strategies as needed.
​
Achieving this vision will require dedication, innovation, and a collective effort from the entire Eastbourne Borough Indoor Bowls Club community.
With a clear vision and committed leadership, your club is poised to become a beacon of success and enjoyment in the bowls community.
