The final of the Major Pairs must have been an exciting event with some interesting scenarios occurring.
Drawn Games
Law 28.2 describes a drawn game in a knockout competition. The skips in a team game must toss a coin and the winner will decide who must play first as described in Law 5.2.2. This latter law allows the winner of the toss to give the mat away to commence this extra end. The Controlling Body does not toss the coin. Players should be aware of the Laws or request assistance from the appointed Umpire.
Interference with jack or bowl
The stopping of bowls or jack whilst still rolling continues to occur. Although it may be obvious bowls are going into the ditch, objections could be raised. Always allow the bowl or jack to enter the ditch before removing it, provided the bowl is not a toucher. In my opinion, a player could ask to have his bowl replayed if stopped before entering the ditch by an opposing player.
Touchers
Players should be aware of the time frame to mark touchers. Law 15.1 states a toucher must be marked with chalk by a member of the team that delivered the bowl as soon as it comes to rest. The bowl may be nominated as a toucher in which case it must be marked before the next bowl has come to rest as per Law 15.3 otherwise it ceases to be a toucher. Players at the mat end should allow time for the marking of a toucher before delivering their bowl.
Finally, Umpires should be seen and not heard. May I suggest any comments which may affect a player’s concentration be left until after the game when a quiet word would suffice.
