This role will support a group of vision impaired indoor bowlers weekly on Tuesday mornings 9.50am - 11.30am. The season starts 13th Feb and goes through to the end of October.

In addition, the group will travel away to the National Blind Bowls tournament on Labour Weekend in Hamilton. Ideally you would be available to travel away that weekend and guide the vision impaired bowlers throughout the tournament.  All costs including accommodation, meals and travel are paid for.
