Rules of Play
The Start: The thrower marks his or her start point with a chalk line and stands behind this line. The thrower's team mates (called the "showers") stand 20-30 yards down the road to mark the desired path of the bowl and alert spectators and other players that the bowl is coming.
The Grip: Players should grip the bowl with the thumb and index and/or middle finger. The bowl should be thrown from the fingers, not from the palm.
The Throw: Experienced bowlers will take a running start and release the bowl at the start line. Novice players find that taking two or three steps is sufficient. The bowl should fly through the air for a few yards before striking the road surface. Don’t cross your chalk line and "break the butt."
The Shot: From wherever the bowl stops "not where it leaves the road surface" where it is taken directly to the nearest point on the road. Mark the ‚ "butt‚" so the next player can throw from that point.
The Finish: After your team's last shot, turn in your score card and clear the way for incoming bullets.
Play Safe and Play Smart: It is your responsibility as a player to make sure that everyone ahead of you on the road is facing you. NEVER throw your bullet to a person's back. Do not be shy about yelling ‚ "Rolling!‚" or "Clear the way!‚" or "Faugh a ballach!" Never stop the bullet with your foot or hand. Those really are cannonballs and they were designed for mortal combat. Make sure and give a special thanks to our sponsors!
