Lawn bowls is a popular sport throughout Australia, especially, although by no means exclusively, with out more senior citizens. The game can involve between two and eight players, playing singles, doubles, triples and fours. Each player on the team aims to position as many bowls as possible nearer the jack (the white ball) than the opposing player or team.
