FOOTWEAR AT MATCHES

FOOTWARE

Would all clubs ensure this season that all their players have a change of footware and that it is used before stepping on any mat. There is a rule in the book covering this but it is common courtesy to do so.

Rule 7 Footwear

Bowling Shoes or any smooth heel-less footwear must be worn while playing on the rink mat, and these must be other than the ones worn whilst travelling to the venue.

NAMES ON SCORE CARDS

Please ensure that BOTH the full CHRISTIAN AND SURNAME of a player is entered on the score cards not just initials.
