The Cyprus Bowls Festival was held at the lovely Athena Beach Hotel greens in Paphos, Cyprus. The event was organised by Ces Hope and the Athena Beach Hotel.
Throughout his bowling career Steve has always supported the admin side of the game as well as a keen player of the game.
As a club secretary, association secretary, county delegate on the BCGBA (National Governing Body) Management Committee, Media Officer for the BCGBA, Merseyside champion in 2002 and Merseyside County President (2014-15) Steve has always been keen to promote the game especially through the broadcast of the game on TV or Internet. Steve set up the LIVE BOWLS YouTube channel which became the Bowls Observer channel and, through the LDBA, runs national competitions.
Seeing an avenue to report on and promote the game Steve set up the Bowls Observer on-line magazine.
