Since the establishment of the new regions in 2021, the Ballarat Highlands Bowls Region have been trying to move towards the BHBR being one region and all decisions and programs are designed with this in mind.
Therefore, all state events are now regional events (from the start of the event) and will be played as such (not separated into playing areas).
As of 2022-23, all State events are organised by the State Events committee not the Pennant Committee.
