Lawn Bowling
Lawn bowling, also known as bowls, is played on a large smooth grass surface, called a green. Each green is divided into smaller portions, called rinks, where the game is played. Equipment includes your bowls, which are large, hard resin balls with a bias to them, so that they travel along an elliptical path, rather than going straight; another small, white, smooth, ball called a jack; and a mat from which you bowl. The object of bowls, as in bocce or curling, is to get your bowls closer to the jack than your opponent. This is achieved by players from each team taking turns rolling their bowls down the green toward the jack.
