Lane Cup
15. a. 4 Bowls per player.
b. Winner is first to 90 points.
c. The Bowl nearest the jack scores 4 points, second nearest scores 3 points, third nearest scores 2 points, and fourth nearest scores 1 point. This means the total score in each end must add up to 10.
d. The player who casts the jack and begins the end is the player with the shot bowl in the previous end.
e. If any two bowls which are in the count are exactly the same distance from the jack, unless the two bowls belong to the same player, the two bowls, and those two only, are played again to decide who will have the higher score. This occurs once the other scoring bowls have been agreed and all bowls are removed from the rink. The player who began the end shall bowl first.
* Please ensure golf tees are pushed well into the ground so as not to impede moving bowls.
