The Game

Lawn bowling is a deceptively simple game. 

Here’s a brief explanation of play:

Two teams consisting of 1,2 or 4 players compete against each other.

Each team rolls 4 bowls (per player) per end towards an object ball (the jack); bowls are rolled alternately by the teams.

The team with the closest bowl to the jack scores 1 point. If their next nearest bowl is closer to the jack than their opponent’s best bowl then they score 2 points and so on.

Teams can decide themselves what score they want to play up to, although many teams just keep score until time is up.

 

For a more in-depth explanation, see the Introduction, Rules, and other pages.
