In October 2002, the President of Sandy Bay Bowls Club, Mel Jones along with the President of Bowls Australia, John McDougall, President of the STBA, Tim Noar, President of the Tasmanian Bowls Council, John Eustace, and the President of the Royal NSW Bowls Association, Ned London, visited the Twilight Bowls..

John McDougall had the following comments on the Twilight Bowls,
" It was a great pleasure to visit the Sandy Bay club and meet President Mel, Vice President Peter, Tim and others and discuss the many initiatives the club has undertaken. In particular I was most impressed with the number of mostly young people enjoying our game that evening in a "social" atmosphere. It is no wonder that the club is attracting so many people to the game when they can enjoy a drink, a BBQ and some bowls in such an enjoyable environment. Congratulations!"
John Eustace also made encouraging comments
"I took the opportunity of visiting the Sandy Bay Club on Wednesday evening, 29 October. What an absolute pleasure to witness 72 people, many of them young, enjoying themselves in the Wednesday evening social bowls. Congratulations to the members of the Sandy Bay Bowls Club who have committed themselves to promoting the sport to the many business houses in and around the City. I was impressed to see the way the 'young' participants were enjoying the game being played, the fellowship with each other and the hospitality extended by members of the Club. A great concept which can go a long way to ensuring a sound future for the sport. I spent a couple of hours talking to and listening to the participating bowlers, one and all agreed that the concept introduced by the Club was very rewarding and allowed the participants to learn the game and enjoy the participation in a friendly relaxed atmosphere."
