While bowls overall medal target for the Glasgow Commonwealth Games was achieved minimum of four medals the sport was disappointed not to achieve the gold medal target 23. Some athletes struggled with the slower conditions and took too long adapting to what was required to produce a golden result. Bowls Australia conducted an extensive high performance review following Glasgow with a number of recommendations to enhance the capabilities of future teams. While the conditions may not have favoured the Australian team it is worth noting that the next three major tournaments the 2015 Asia Pacific Championships 2016 world championships and 2018 Commonwealth Games are all being played on the faster New Zealand and Australian greens. The bowls program continues to build on its high performance culture within the daily training environment. The likely introduction of the AIS Athlete Management System in 2015 will also enable greater athlete accountability in their ongoing development. The program continues to produce world-class bowlers and with greater athlete accountability and direction from the head coach the sport will remain on track to achieve benchmark event targets through to 2018. The program is confident of achieving its targets at the 2016 world championships. governance Bowls Australia remains proactive in increasing its alignment with the ASCs mandatory sports governance principles and performs well when benchmarked against Australias Winning Edge sports. Bowls Australia is conducting a governance scan and board evaluation of the members to assist in strengthening governance across the sport. 2014 benchmark event Commonwealth Games medal target 4 to 7 actual gold 0 silver 1 bronze 3 total 4 boxing high performance P Total investment 201415 944000 high performance 850000 participation 54000 other 40000 ASC funding as a percentage of total income 46 Boxing Australia exceeded its medal targets at the 2014 Commonwealth Games two gold and one silver medal with gold medallist Shelley Watts also making the quarterfinals at the womens world championships. This has resulted in the sport being rated as progressing. The quality of the daily training environments of the majority of Boxing Australias Australias Winning Edge-categorised athletes has improved since the finalisation of its national coaching structure. To create a more optimum environment Shelley Watts and Daniel Lewis are relocating to the AIS in Canberra to spend more time with the head coach and relevant service providers. There was an increase in the number and quality of centralised training opportunities in 2014 including international training camps with Scotland Vietnam the Philippines and Brazil and a pre-Commonwealth Games training phase held in Ireland. Qualification for the Rio 2016 Olympic Games will be more difficult than previous campaigns with athletes now primarily having to qualify through Asia. This will likely mean a reduced number of boxers competing in Rio than at previous Games. governance Boxing is continuing to progress its governance in line with the ASCs mandatory governance principles after achieving significant change following the 2011 whole of sport review. 2014 benchmark event world championships women medal target 0 to 1 non-medal target achieved Y
