PLAYING THE GAME: THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW
As you might expect, there’s a little bit of housekeeping to take care of before you hit the lanes. We’ll run you through them on the day, but basically they cover the house rules (no glass on the greens, no shoes for social bowls and no overarm shots), some basic do’s and don’ts while you’re playing (like do take turns, don’t bowl more than one at a time), the rules of the game and how to play. Just all the things you need to know to keep everyone safe and having fun.
FAQs
On competition days we do wear uniforms, but styles and colours have moved with the times. Starting out, when practicing and social bowls, we just wear normal casual clothes that are comfortable to bowl in.
Starting out, it’s simply a matter of rolling up when you want. Bring your friends down and have fun!
