WEDNESDAY PAIRS 2024 - 2025

WED PAIRS LEAGUE RULES

The format will be 2 x 7 End Sets, with a tie break of 3 Ends if required.  4 wood pairs to World Bowls Tour rules. Toss for the jack at the start. If you give the jack away for the start of the 1st Set you must start with the jack in the 2nd Set, you cannot give the jack away at any time during the two sets.

If the match goes to a Tie Break then you must toss for the jack at this point. If you win the toss you may decide to keep the jack or give it away.  Whoever casts the jack on the 1st end of the Tie Break, your opponent will then cast it on the 2nd end of the tie break, regardless of who wins the end.  If a 3rd end is needed it goes back to the person who cast the jack on the 1st end of the Tie Break to deliver it.

If a player delivers the jack improperly, the opposing player will then place the mat and re-deliver the jack. If he then delivers it improperly the jack is placed on the tee and the 1st player can put the jack wherever he chooses.

There will be NO DEAD ENDS …… If the jack goes dead it will be re-spotted to a SPOT 1.5 metres from the centre line and 2 metres from the ditch on the side that it leaves the rink.

In the tie break you are just paying to win each end, so only one shot needs to go down on the scorecard, it will be the first team to win 2 tie break ends that will win the game.
