In a statement, the PNGOC said: “The PNG Olympic Committee Executive Board at its meeting on May 6, 2020, resolved to suspend Bowls PNG for a period of six months after it failed to show cause why it should not be suspended.
“The PNGOC had been in dialogue with Bowls PNG since February 2019 on issues raised by members of the lawn bowls community in relation to its legal structure as an incorporated private company and whether such a setup represented the best interests of the wider bowls sporting fraternity.
