Australian owned AeroBowls today received official World Bowls certification.
AeroBowls are manufactured at a state of the art plant in Rosebery, Sydney and are
part of the high profile Comfitpro group, a manufacturer and distributor of a wide
range of market leading bowls accessories and clothing.
AeroBowls is in the process of launching three models of bowls types on the Australian market and has plans to be a major exporter of bowls once production has been ramped up.
AeroBowls Chief Executive Officer Walter Jacobs, together with AeroBowls
Administrative Director Sharon Jacobs and AeroBowls Chief Operating Officer Rod
Heaton said in a joint statement today:
“We are delighted at the passing of this important milestone in our journey to bring a new level of technology and performance to the game we all love so much.
“The advanced technology we have brought to the manufacturing process - which is already used in biomedical, defence and aerospace industries around the world - means for the first time in the history of the game bowlers can purchase a set of bowls secure in the knowledge that every bowl in their set will be identical in trajectory.
“This is a fundamental guarantee of AeroBowls.
“It’s a major breakthrough for the game and represents a technological ‘catch-up’
compared to many sports.
“Sports equipment has evolved rapidly over the past two to three decades through the application of new materials and new advanced manufacturing processes, whether it be golf, tennis, football, sailing or cricket, to name a few.
“Our own personal experience as bowlers combined with a long and close association with bowlers at every level, made us aware of the shortcomings of traditional bowls and fed our desire to make the perfect bowl.
“We have been heartened by the support for the endeavour by elite bowlers in many countries who shared our interest in making a better bowl.
“AeroBowls is committed to remaining at the forefront of the sport and to a philosophy that ensures that all bowlers, regardless of their level of expertise, will have access to the same bowl. We do not and will not make special one-off sets for the professionals,” they said.
AeroBowls will be available in leading bowls outlets from March 2012.
Professional Bowlers who choose to play exclusively with AeroBowls include:
Kelvin Kerkow OAM - Commonwealth Games gold medallist
Brett Wilkie – Current world number two
Julie Keegan - World Championships gold medallist
