Mixed teams of 4 - single sex teams may enter -if there are spaces, (need to contact organisers) BUT are not eligible to go through to finals.
Format:
Minimum of 2 games (40-minute games), there will be 5 squads, at set times, first squad will register at 8.40am. Teams need to allow 1.5hours per squad, top teams from each squad will go through to finals early afternoon.
Scoring:
Each game consists of ten frames. Each box on the score sheet represents one frame. You have a maximum of two deliveries per frame, unless you roll a strike. If you knock down all ten pins with your first delivery in a frame, you have scored a strike. A strike counts as 10 points plus the number of pins you knock down with your next two deliveries in the next frame or frames (when it is your turn to bowl again).
Bowling Do's and Don'ts:
DO push the ball out and down as you take your first step.
DON'T rush the foul line. A brisk walk will keep the ball in a smooth arc.
DO face your target squarely at tall times.
Follow through with your arm smoothly. This will give you accuracy.
NB: Team composition rules must be complied with eg. Only organisation/company members and their immediate families and partners are allowed to enter.
