County League Rules

If any dates need to be changed both teams need to agree, and Matt Pownall must be informed.

2 rinks at home 2 rinks away (TRIPLES).

There will be NO trial ends, the game will consist of a 16-end game. Max 3.5-hour game.

There will be NO dead ends, RE-SPOTS are to be used.

If a team fails to field a full rink, 2 players may play but with only 6 bowls (the triple, lead plays 3 against the others teams lead, the triple team number two then plays 3 bowls one after the other as he has no opposition and then the skips bowl one after the other. If a team is 3 players short they will forfeit a rink and it’s point, plus 10 shots. This rule is only to be applied if someone doesn’t turn up, this is not to be abused because a team can not get the full required numbers in the first place.

All other rules to follow EIBA guidelines. Any queries speak to Matt Pownall.
