President's Foreword

To all of the members of HIBA

I feel honoured to have been given the opportunity to be your president again for 2026 - 2027

For the forthcoming season I wish you all have a fantastic time in all of your games

I would like to thank Loddon Vale IBC and the COunty Executive for their support and confidence in electing me

I can only hope I meet the high standards set by predecessors. I always love my sport looking back over the last 45 years I have won and lost some brilliant game but most of all I have made friends with some brilliant fellow bowlers  

It is a fantastic sport and don't forget win or lose the sport of bowls gives us all satisfaction and pleasure

I hope to see you on and off the green and I say to all of our players - please support the County in all our Inter-County games and the Patron's matches

I hope you all have a fantastic Season and good luck in any competitions 

Yours sincerely 

Nigel Bechelet, President
