New Honorary President and Honorary Vice President
The Ayrshire bowling association and wider bowling family sadly lost David Houston recently. David was a long term director of the Association and ex president, however he served as secretary for many years and without doubt, the Association was in safe hands with Davids guidance. Following his time served, David was elected as Honorary president, a role he was honoured to accept. David will always be fondly remembered by many.
In 2024 the directors unanimously voted on as our new Honorary president Fred Winters. Fred again having served for many years as a director and ex president and also a long term sponsor with Jack High insurance. Fred was delighted to accept and remains active at meetings and supporting the current board with his knowledge.
The end of the 2024 season seen William (Buff) Alexander step down as a director and East district secretary after many years. Buff has dedicated many years to the association and now deserves to relax. However it's not in his nature. So the directors have appointed Buff as Honorary vice president, which will ensure we retain Buffs extensive experience and hope he can enjoy his time as Honorary VP.
