  Game Etiquette

ETIQUETTE MAY BE DEFINED VERY SIMPLY AS... "GOOD SPORTSMANSHIP"
  • Begin each game with a friendly handshake, and end the game with the same. Be a gracious winner and a good loser.
     
  • Be ready to step to the mat and play when it is your turn. Possession of the mat is yours only until your delivered bowl comes to rest.
     
  • Wait quietly behind the collection of bowls and be prepared to take your next turn. A bowler delivering his/her bowl should not be distracted by noise or movement.
     
  • Remain quiet and still on the green behind the head and away from sideline markers until the score has been agreed upon by both teams. You are a team member! Stay in the game!
     
  • Never openly criticize the condition of a green. You must adjust your bowling to the conditions.
     
  • Never criticize a team member for a poorly played bowl. Criticism should always be constructive and given privately.
     
  • Be sure to compliment a good shot from either your team or an opponent. "Nothing said about a poor shot is the best policy - especially if it gives your team the count!"
