We shall be playing a modified round-robin event, 4 games of 10 ends each. If it is a hot day, we may reduce to 8-end games. A random draw will be completed ahead of time.

Please bring a bag lunch. Tea, coffee and snacks will be provided.

Scoring: Win scores 3 points, Draw scores 1 point.

The team with the most game points will be declared the winner and if there is a tie in game points, then the shot differential between the 2 teams will be the deciding factor. Shot differentials will be capped at +/- 10.

Games will be played under modified Bowls Canada Rules. If the jack is burned, it is placed at the centre point of the mat line at the 2 metre mark.

Happy bowling!!!
