Hi Trevor - Must get my Thinking cap on - Have heard of Crystal Meths but not Mark- Most of Bowls was by word of Mouth or a Warning by Persons - unmentioned -who Said - you are doing this wrong !! - little or No advice on what was right - just tried to enjoy - Roll on Summer. Will try & dig out Rule Books among my Hoardings of last 50 years - have a little time - will be at it later today .

Replying to

Bill,

According to the World Bowls site, the laws are reviewed every four years, synchronised with the running of the Commonwealth Games. This is known as the Crystal Mark edition. If there are no changes, then that cycle is simply skipped, as has happened several times. To cater for cultural and geographic differences, WBA allow each member nation to publish their own set of laws every two years.

On a wry note, observe that you can download the WBA rule book as a PDF for free, whereas you have to buy Bowls England's version.
