Hong Kong Lawn Bowls Association

In the Council of Management meeting of 12 Dec 2016, the Councillors endorsed the following procedure on league fixture approval and confirmation.

Some public green clubs waited for HKLBA approval mail and missed the timing on green booking in public venues.

We would like to reiterate our policy and procedure on the HKLBA approval mail as below:

In a league game, a team is short of one player when start time arrives. According to Law of Sport of Bowls, they can start the game with first two players playing three woods each and the skip play two woods, The winning score is deducted by 25%.(Law of Sport of Bowls 39.2.2.)

The defaulting team challenged and refused first two players playing three woods. They queried if the first two players played two woods and the score would not be deducted.
