An introduction to what you need to be able to mark a bowls match. Marking is needed for singles matches, mainly in competitions. It covers the duties of the marker, but also gives a good background in the various laws of the sport regarding what affects play and the results of ends. For anyone who may need to mark a match (covers most people!).
This covers situations when a little more weight is needed in the delivery than a simple draw, for instance to move a wood/woods or the jack. For anyone who finds themself playing in singles or pairs games, or in non-lead positions.
If you are playing at 2 or 3 (in triples or rinks respectively), reading the head is vital to give good advice to your skip. Skips need to know this too.
