17.01.2022 Bowls talk Victoria It is with regret that due to the ongoing uncertainty in Victoria with further easing of restrictions and border closures, RUBC has decided to postpone the Victorian Masters that would have been typically held in March 2021. There is still no firm dates for many championships held in Victoria, and the last thing we want to do is clash with other events that are also looking for dates in what will be a very crowded calendar. At this stage we are still hope...ful of staging the event sometime in 2021, perhaps later in the year. We will keep everyone posted in the new year and here's hoping that life will get somewhat back to normal in the next twelve months. Stay safe everyone and good bowling!
