The current (third) edition of the South African Laws of the Sport of Bowls took effect in 2014.
The booklet is available as a free PDF download in English or Afrikaans from the Bowls SA website.
Every bowler who wishes to gain greater pleasure from the game should be familiar with the laws. That’s not a case of learning them off by heart, but rather reading a couple of pages a day.
Then once you have read the whole booklet, start again at the beginning.
When you have been through the process a couple of times you will be one of the most knowledgeable people in your club about the rules.
You can download directly from here.
