Like any sport, lawn bowls has its own set of rules which are fairly lengthy.   

 

The basic idea is to deliver (or roll) a bowl along a grass surface to get it as close as possible to a white ball (the jack).  In a game, whoever's bowl is closest after all the bowls have been delivered wins the end (or mini game).  It may appear simple, but the bowl has a "bias" which makes it curve and the grass changes depending on the weather and the time of day.
