Regardless of what you do put in
every game boils down to doing the things you do best
and doing them over and over again. |

Reember The Opposition
People play bowls for enjoyment and it will be more pleasurable
if they are mindful of their opponents. Be ready. Always be on
time for the start of play and for the start of each game. Start
and finish a game with a handshake.

 If
You Are
Second Don't Be Short
If the lead has done his job the second can be called upon to play
position bowls – and they can be the most difficult to play. If the
opposition lead has two on the jack the second may be called upon to
play a firm shot to open up the head. So, the second has to be very
versatile or his bowls will be wasted. He has to have a good draw
shot, he must have accurate positional play, and he must be the
possessor of a good firm shot. A second must never be short unless
otherwise directed. An overdrawn bowl has a better chance of
counting than a short bowl. In addition to playing the game the
second is responsible for keeping the correct scores registered on
the card and on the scoreboard. Any player that can live up to the
above has a very important role to play in any team

When Can You Look At The Head?
Occasionally you come across a player who wants to go up and
look at the head after each delivery. Is this OK?
Appendix A.4
Restricting the movement of players during play
After delivering their first bowl, players will only be allowed
to walk up to the head under the following circumstances.
Singles game - after delivery of their third and fourth bowls.
Pairs game (each player playing four bowls)
the leads: after delivery of their third and fourth bowls; and
the skips: after delivery of their second, third and fourth
bowls.
Triples game (each player playing three bowls)
the leads: after delivery of their third bowl;
the seconds: after delivery of their second and third bowls; and
the skips: after delivery of each of their bowls.

Mates in Bowls
This has proved so popular that it is being extended by one
more week. Come along this Thursday at 6.00 pm for another
entertaining evening of bowling. Numbers for most weeks
averaged in the 30's and quite a few people indicated a
willingness to carry on with bowling.
Special
thanks must be given to the organising team of Dave Jenkins,
Maree Turner and Sue Brock plus their willing band of helpers
who stepped in with their time and experience. Your club
thanks you all for your efforts to encourage more into the
sport. |
