Announcement of the Gender Equality Commission from EBF
On the proposal of the EBF President Mr. Addie Ophelders, the EBF Presidium in October 2021 decided to establish the Gender Equality Commission (GEC).
The task of the GEC is to create a strategy on how to increase the number of women in bowling’s management, coaching and participation structures.
The GEC wants to include 1-2 men as members as well, since gender equality concerns all people in bowling and different genders need to work in unity to change the current unequal conditions for women. The men will initially be invited as observers to the GEC.
GEC has asked EBF President to send a questionnaire to all member federations to collect detailed statistics about number of women working on managerial positions within national federations to evaluate the current status of women’s involvement.
Two ideas were already discussed:
- To start drafting the policy, which would enable the electability of women to EBF and national federation management boards,we also must find the means and develop a sustainable action plan on how to empower women to run for executive positions. Points a) and b) are to support this idea:
- EU Gender Equality in Sport Recommendations and Action Plan (2022) suggests Quota provisions concerning women’s representation in decision making positions and will be published soon.
- we will try to organise a half an hour lecture about the GEC tasks and focuses – the goal is to find a representative from one international sport organisation for the next meeting which will be held on June 16, 2022.
Dear Presidents, dear friends,
If I tell you that we are living in a world which is in turmoil, I am not saying something new. We are all living in a shock of what had happened to our friends in Ukraine. I have written an email to the President of the Ukrainian federation.
The email is as follows:
————————————
Dear Mr. President,
Let me start in saying that the Presidium of EBF as well as most (if not all) member federations of EBF are shocked by the recent actions.
Let me assure you, Mr. President, that EBF will strictly follow the recommendations of the IOC. Russian and Belorussian athletes and officials will be banned from participating in International (EBF) competitions.
Unfortunately, we cannot do enough to help you, your beloved and the people of your Country. We wish you all a lot of courage and strength.
On behalf of my presidium
Addie Ophelders
President
European Bowling Federation
————————————
As you know the IOC and GAISF have sent a recommendation to all International Sport Federations (including IBF) that athletes and officials from Russia and Belarus should be stopped from participating in international competitions. IBF and EBF follow that recommendation.
As you know, in our Presidium we have a colleague and friend Sergey Lisitsyn from Russia. Sergey was appointed by me as Championships Director for the EMC in June in Helsinki and for the EYC in September in Wittelsheim, France. Sergey has asked me to replace him for both championships; I respect his wish and he will be replaced.
I sincerely hope that this heart-breaking situation will end soon and that we can continue bowling together with all our friends.
Regards
Addie Ophelders
President
New dates for the European Women Championships 2022 have been set as 10-21 August 2022 in Lövvang Bowling Center, Aalborg, Denmark.
All previously registered federations have to re-submit forms B – E; this can only be done in a couple of days as the Host has to set forms to zero first, at same time then the Host will also publish new deadlines as needed.
Federations that were not already registered to participate but can now register due to new dates are better for them will be able to register Form A until the set deadline.
