How Lawn Bowls Is Played?
Normally, Lawn Bowls is played in three formats – singles, doubles and fours, depending on the number of individuals pitted against each other. The player/team which manages to place its bowls closer to the stationary target, called ‘The Jack’, are awarded the points.
The bowls needed to be rolled on the floor from a distance. In the four-player format, each team gets eight throws, or rolls, from one ‘end’. One ‘end’ means completion of one round. One team has to throw the bowls from 18 ends to complete the match and it happens in a circular manner.
The team with more points after 18 ends of throws will take the contest. A coin toss starts the game and the winner gets to choose which end to begin the game from. The 'Jack' is then placed at one end and rolled towards the other end.
The 'Jack' has to travel at least 23m to be considered in play. While bowling, a player has to have at least one foot of the mat.
How Are Points Awarded?
The number of points awarded is determined by the number of bowls a team has managed to place closer to the ‘Jack’ compared to its opponent. For example: If Team A places two bowls closer to the 'Jack’ compared to Team B라이브 바카라 closest bowls, it will win two points for the end.
In case team A had managed to place three bowls closer to the target than team B라이브 바카라 closest bowl, it would have been awarded three points. In case the distance between the jack and the bowls is not visually evident, umpires use a device called as ‘box measure’ that uses a string to determine the score.
