APPOINTMENT of CLUB COACH

It is with much pleasure that the Seymour VRI Bowling Club announce the appointment of David Ellis to the position of Seymour VRI Playing Coach for the coming 2026-27 bowls season.
David began playing bowls as an 18-year-old, and over the past 45 years has represented 6 clubs, been involved in winning 9 flags and spent 15 years at Lalor Bowls Clu, with and under Ian Ewing (Victorian State Coach) playing both Premier League and Division 1 in the Metropolitan Pennant Competition.

For the past 6 years David has played for the Broadford Bowling Club in the Central Highlands Playing Area, where he mentored a number of new players and many existing members, improving their game to a higher level.

Through his experiences in bowls, and with the support of the members it is hoped that he can develop new skills and give Seymour VRI Members a better understanding of different game situations, David is also an accredited umpire.
