Just come across feather bowling is anybody playing this in the UK ? I thought they were playing with cheeses at first or some kind of sketch but it seems to be a real thing.

Stay safe on the greens today with the heat everybody ! A seaside green with sea breeze would suit me today. Will have to settle for East Gloucestershire instead maybe there will be breeze of the severn.

Not when it's on the rink next door!
One of our older players made a statement during a practice game that, points can be claimed when the opposition bowled out of turn or acc kicked a bowl during a league match. Can't see this in the rules. Thoughts please.

Unusual to see a bowls term being used in a newspaper I almost got excited. Perhaps we can get some youngsters to check out some more terminology at there local bowls club.

@BowlsEngland This is not meant to be a negative comment. I am interested why a lot of clubs didn't participate over the weekend. I.E only one club in the west Glos area.
Think its a foot fault !
Who doesn’t love a slo-mo? 🤣 Look at that precision from the 2019 Singles Champion 🎯 Think you might have a better technique and want to have a go? 🔎 bowlsbigweekend.com #BowlsBigWeekend

@activeglos Don't forget most lawn bowls clubs are reopening soon for the summer. The great thing is anybody can play any age . Not just older folks.

@activeglos bear us bowlers in mind in Gloucestershire
Our sport is planning its return clubs up & down the land are preparing for a safe return. Lots of Zooming going on and greens & grounds being spruced up. Yes we await final guidance from Bowls England after their plans are approved by the government.....But bring it on!
