*COMPOSITION OF TEAMS:
Open to members of any club affiliated to Bowls New Zealand or any other country which is a member of World Bowls. They must be a bona fide active playing member of the Club they represent. For teams from outside the Taranaki Centre, any team must consist of members of any Club/s from the same Centre. Teams entered from within the Taranaki Centre must be composed of members of one club, however the Tournament Committee reserves the right to approve the inclusion of one member from any other club affiliated to Bowls NZ, should they consider the circumstances warrant such variation. When a player is a member of more than one club, that player will be deemed to be a member only of the club for which that player currently plays the majority of the centre events. If a player joins another club this season but continues to play for their existing club as well, the determination will be which club they have played the majority of Centre events for in the last 12 months. The Tournament Committee has the right to permit variations to the composition of teams, should it be of the opinion that circumstances warrant such variation. Section play is a placed draw so teams from the same visiting Centre or Taranaki Club avoid playing each other. Post section is a random draw.
