Test Your Knowledge

The previous question was: "A delivered bowl hits the foot of his skip and does not disturb the head. What action is taken?"

The options and votes cast were: Replay the bowl (2) / Opposing skip places bowl where he thinks it would have come to rest (11) / Declare bowl dead (4).

Well done to the 4 who indicated that the bowl should be declared dead. If a bowl in it's original course that has not disturbed the head before it is displaced, law 37.1.1.1 states "If the bowl is displaced by a member of the team that delivered the bowl and it has not disturbed the head after it is displaced, the opposing skip must declare the bowl dead".

The new question concerns action to be taken by the marker in singles if a bowl from an adjoining rink may disturb a bowl on his rink.
