Rowan’s Law Consent Forms

The Ontario government passed Rowan’s Law and it deals with concussions and what the club must do to educate our members and coaches. Our Juniors and Little Rocks already know about the Law and they have their own consent forms in place. The club is now responsible for identifying and having anyone under the age of 26, sign this consent form.

We do have birthdays for most members and I will reach out to those people we know are under 26 but please contact Jim if you do not hear from him.

If you are a member and under 26 years of age please reach out to Jim and he will send you the form that we need signed and returned by the end of January.

We will probably send the form to all members next summer with their membership invoices just to help everyone know what they should do in case of a concussion. These consent forms are basically an education tool that younger members must sign annually and spells out how to identify concussions and what to do if you think you or someone you think might have one. We will also be educating Coaches and Trainers and have them sign a separate form as well.

Please take the time to read the form when we send it out and consider getting some protective head gear.

Speed of Play – the 45 Second Rule

The Burlington Golf and Country Club produced a video called “The 45 Second Rule”. The video is under 4 minutes long and I feel strongly that every member should watch the video. It addresses speed of play and really is as simple as getting ready to throw when your turn is coming up. It spells out how to do it and what all the players on the team should be doing to get ready.

BCGC members have said that it has made a big difference to their whole club’s speed of play and they are getting more 8 end games completed then ever before.
Please take the 4 minutes, click on the link and watch the short YouTube video, if we can get all our members following this simple advice it will make a huge difference to our club’s speed of play.
