🎯 KNOW THE RULES — BECAUSE THIS ONE CAN CHANGE AN END! 👀🔥

You’re measuring for shot… and suddenly the jack moves! 😳

Or a non-toucher rebounds off the bank and displaces the jack…

Or even better — a bowl comes flying across from the neighbouring rink! 😂

Now what?! 🤔

This is where knowing the Laws can save a LOT of debate on the green. ⚖️🟢

📖 Section 2 – Game Anomalies deals with exactly these situations, including jack displacement during measuring, displacement by a non-toucher, and interference from a neighbouring rink.

And here’s the interesting part: the correct decision isn’t always the same. It depends on how the jack was displaced and who or what caused it.

🔥 BOWLERS — TEST YOUR RULES KNOWLEDGE!

Before reading the poster, what would YOU do if you accidentally moved the jack while measuring? 👇

A) Put it back yourself
B) Let your opponent replace it
C) Call the umpire
D) Pretend nobody saw it and walk away VERY slowly… 😂😂

Drop your answer below BEFORE checking the poster! 👇🎯

Tag your teammates — especially that one bowler who somehow becomes a qualified rules expert whenever the decision goes their way! 🤣

Know the rules. Respect the game. Enjoy the bowls. 💚

🎯 YOU NEVER REALLY FINISH LEARNING BOWLS… and that’s exactly why we keep coming back! 💚

You can play for 5 years, 15 years… even 30 years — and then lawn bowls casually reminds you that you still have plenty to learn. 😂

A green you just can’t read.
A head you’ve never seen before.
An opponent who completely changes your thinking.
A shot you’ve never attempted… until suddenly you pull it off! 🔥🙌

That’s the magic of this game. Every end can teach you something. Every opponent can challenge you. And every match gives you another chance to become a better bowler.

💡 The moment you think you know everything about lawn bowls… lawn bowls is probably preparing your next lesson! 😏🎯

👇 BOWLERS — what’s the BIGGEST lesson this game has taught you?
And be careful saying “I’ve finally figured this green out…” because we all know what happens on the very next end! 😂😂

Tag that bowler who has been playing forever… and is STILL learning! 👇🤣

🎯 NEW SERIES CONTINUES: MASTERING YOUR LAWN BOWLS DELIVERY!

You can have the perfect stance.
You can choose the perfect line.
You can have a beautiful backswing…

But if the release goes wrong, the bowl probably will too! 😅

🔥 PART 4: THE RELEASE — LETTING THE BOWL FLOW

A good delivery isn’t about throwing the bowl down the green. It’s about releasing it low, smooth and level to the ground, allowing the bowl to roll naturally off your fingers.

Remember:

🎯 Release close to the ground
✋ Keep your hand and wrist aligned
⏱️ Maintain a smooth, steady speed
➰ Follow the natural arc of your swing
💪 Control, not power!

That beautiful sssssshhh as the bowl leaves your hand and starts rolling smoothly? THAT’S what we’re looking for! 😍

👇 BOWLERS — what causes you the most trouble with your release?
Do you sometimes drop it, dump it, bounce it… or give it a little extra “launch” when the pressure is on? 😂

Share your experience below — your tip might just help another bowler! 👇🎯

🎯 THE WALK TO THE MAT… WHERE AN ENTIRE MATCH CAN HAPPEN INSIDE YOUR HEAD! 😂🧠

Every bowler knows this walk.

You leave the head with a plan…

Then the questions begin:

🤔 What shot?
↔️ Which hand?
⚖️ How much weight?
😬 What if I miss?
😳 Should I change the shot?
😂 WHY AM I STILL THINKING?!

And then your foot touches the mat.

Suddenly, there’s no more time for debate.

Pick the line. Trust the weight. Commit to the bowl. 🎯

Because bowls is a game of thought, tactics and calculation…

But sooner or later, every decision requires courage. 💚

Sometimes the difference between a brilliant bowl and a bad one isn’t ability.

It’s commitment.

🔥 THINK. STEP. COMMIT. THAT’S THE GAME.

👇 Bowlers, what goes through YOUR head during that walk to the mat?
Be honest… we know some of you have already played 17 different shots before you get there! 😂😂

Tag the teammate who takes the longest mental journey to the mat! 👇🤣

🎯 KNOW THE RULES. PLAY WITH CONFIDENCE. ENJOY THE GAME! 🟢⚪

Here’s one of those situations you might not see every Saturday… but when it happens, do you know the call? 👀

What happens when the jack is displaced by a disabled player’s equipment or assistant? ♿
What if it’s moved by a neutral person or object?
And does it make a difference whether the jack was still moving or already at rest? 🤔

Law 38.2 & 38.3 have the answers — and this poster breaks them down! 📖🔥

Because knowing the Laws isn’t about being the person who shouts “THAT’S THE RULE!” from the next rink. 😂

It’s about making sure the game is played fairly, respectfully and correctly. 💚

💬 BOWLERS — BE HONEST:
Would you have known exactly what to do in all three situations under 38.3? 👇

Tag a teammate who needs to add this one to their bowls knowledge! 😂🎯

🎯 THE DELIVERY SERIES CONTINUES! 🔥

A great bowl doesn’t start when it leaves your hand… it starts with the step, the swing and the rhythm between them. 👣💥

Part 3 of our Lawn Bowls Delivery Technique Series focuses on creating that smooth, controlled motion that makes your delivery feel effortless — and repeatable.

The key?
✅ Smooth backswing
✅ Balanced forward step
✅ Relaxed acceleration
✅ Let the arm swing like a pendulum
✅ Don’t force what should flow

And here’s the challenge for every bowler… 👀

🎯 What causes YOU the most trouble during your delivery?
A) Timing the step
B) Keeping the backswing straight
C) Staying relaxed
D) Trying not to overthink EVERYTHING 😂

Drop A, B, C or D in the comments! 👇

Tag that bowls mate who could use this series — although maybe don’t tell them why you tagged them. 😂🤣

Save it. Share it. Try it on the green. 💚

❤️ WHY DO WE KEEP COMING BACK TO BOWLS? 🎯

Is it the competition? 🔥
The friendships? 🤝
The challenge? 💪
The victories? 🏆

Absolutely.

But maybe there’s something deeper…

Every bowler walks off the green believing there’s still ONE MORE BOWL inside them they haven’t played yet.

🎯 One better draw.
💥 One impossible conversion.
🔥 One unforgettable comeback.
✨ One absolutely PERFECT end.

And that’s the beautiful thing about this game…

No matter how well you played today, bowls somehow whispers:

“You can be better tomorrow.”

So we come back.

We pick up those bowls again.
We step onto the mat again.
We stare down that little white jack again.

Because…

❤️ WE’RE NOT ONLY CHASING THE JACK.

WE’RE CHASING THE BOWLER WE KNOW WE CAN BECOME. 🎯🔥

👇 BOWLERS — what keeps YOU coming back to the green?

Competition? Friendships? The challenge? Or are you still chasing that one perfect bowl? 😏

Tag the bowler who will NEVER be finished with this game. 😂👇

🎯 KNOW THE RULES — BECAUSE SOMETIMES THE JACK HAS OTHER PLANS! 😂

One second it’s sitting peacefully in the head… the next, someone’s foot, bowl or body sends it on an unexpected adventure! 👀🤣

But what actually happens when the jack is displaced?

⚠️ Was it still in its original course?
⚠️ Was it in motion?
⚠️ Was it already at rest?
⚠️ And most importantly… WHO displaced it? 😳

The answer matters — because the correct ruling can be very different depending on what happened.

📚 LAW 38 – JACK DISPLACEMENT

This is one of those laws every bowler thinks they know… until it happens during a match! 😅

💬 BOWLERS, TEST YOUR KNOWLEDGE:
A jack at rest is accidentally moved by a player. What happens next? 🤔

Drop your answer in the comments BEFORE checking the poster! 👇😂

And tag that teammate who suddenly becomes an international bowls umpire whenever something unusual happens on the green! 🤣🤣

KNOW THE RULES. PLAY THE GAME. ENJOY THE SPORT. 💚🎯

🎯 NEW SERIES CONTINUES — AND WE’RE GETTING A GRIP! 😜🔥

You can have the perfect line in your head… but if the bowl isn’t sitting correctly in your hand, it might have completely different plans! 😂

PART 2: GRIP & BOWL ORIENTATION 🟡🔵

A consistent delivery starts before the bowl even leaves your hand.

👉 Bias facing the right way
👉 Fingers supporting the bowl
👉 Same grip, shot after shot
👉 Build that muscle memory
👉 Create a cleaner, more predictable release

Because in lawn bowls, those tiny details can make a BIG difference between…

🎯 “Perfect bowl!”
and
🌳 “Well… that certainly took the scenic route.” 🤣

💬 BOWLERS — how do YOU grip your bowl?
Do you have a set routine every time, or do you simply pick it up and trust the magic? 👀😂

👇 Share your grip tips below — especially for the newer bowlers following the series!

Next up… we keep building the delivery! 🔥🎯
