Bowls Q&A

Question:

As a result of a drive the jack flies into the air, rebounds off the rink number and finishes on the rink 20m from the mat line. What is the position?

Answer:

The jack has passed above the face of the bank to strike the rink number therefore the end is dead. Law 19.1.1

 

Question:

A fast drive hits the jack which rebounds from the face of the bank onto the green within the rink boundaries. What should be done and by whom?

Answer:

The end will continue provided the jack is more than 18m in a direct line from the centre of the mat line.  It shall be played to as if it had never left the rink. Laws 21.1; 19.1.4 & 19.3
