CLUB CHAIRMAN TO STAND DOWN AFTER FIVE YEARS OF DEDICATED SERVICE

GB Britton Bowls Club Chairman Alistair Binnie has announced that he will be stepping down from his role after five years of outstanding service to the club.

Balancing the demands of a full-time career alongside the responsibilities of leading the club, Ali has given countless hours of his time, energy and commitment to ensuring the continued success and wellbeing of GB Britton Bowls Club.

In announcing his decision, Ali said:

"I have not taken the decision lightly but feel that after five years in the role, it is now time to pass the baton on to someone else. Thank you to everyone for their support."

During his time as Chairman, Ali has led the club with distinction, integrity and dedication. A tireless worker, he has always placed the best interests of the club at the heart of every decision and has helped guide GB Britton through both opportunities and challenges. His calm, fair and balanced approach to leadership has earned him the respect and appreciation of members throughout the club.

Paying tribute to Ali, Club President Peter Coles said:

"It has been an honour and a privilege to work alongside Ali over the past five years. His commitment to the club has been unquestionable, and he has always approached the role with fairness, professionalism and a genuine desire to do what is best for GB Britton Bowls Club. He has led the club through some difficult times and has done so with dignity and determination. Ali will be greatly missed as Chairman and will be a very hard act to follow."

On behalf of everyone at GB Britton Bowls Club, we extend our sincere thanks to Ali for his exceptional service, leadership and friendship. We wish him every success for the future and look forward to continuing to see him enjoying his bowls and remaining an important part of club life for many years to come.
