2022 COAST LEAGUE

---

Originally established by Dr. R.J.Carey of Long Beach in 1959, Coast League is where area lawn bowling clubs compete against one another at each other's lawn bowling club locations. The intent is to encourage inter-club play and offer lawn bowling clubs and their members an opportunity to gain experience on greens of different caliber by visiting other clubs.

The winner of the Coast League is invited to compete in the Waterbury All-League Championship along with the winners of four other SWLBA (Southwest Lawn Bowling Association) leagues. Championship winners will have their names enscribed on the following trophies:

• 1st - Dr Carey Trophy
• 2nd - MacDonald Trophy
• 3rd - Arnold Angell Trophy 

• 5 clubs will be competing in the 2022 Coast League.
• The cost is $4 per person per day.    
• Each club will have either 2 or 4 triples teams.
• The scores from all triples teams will be counted in the team score.
• Number of wins will be divided by the number of games played to determine winning percentage score.
• Standings each week will list teams in order of winning percentages.
• The win-loss ratio of each club's teams for a particular day will be determined. So, for instance, if the 3 of the 4 LBLBC triples teams win their games, the LBLBC win ratio will be 75%. 
• The club with the highest % of wins over the season will advance to Waterbury.

NO HOSPITALITY!!  This means there will be no goodies provided by  the club unless they voluntarily decide to do so.  So, be prepared to bring your own breakfast, snack, and lunch.  There will be no chips or salads provided. All that will be provided is water and coffee.  (Please figure out a way to identify YOUR  bottle of water from the others...maybe bring a rubber band or ribbon to place around it-?)
