Have you ever done a self-assessment? Maybe for your work? Have you ever sat back and reflected on your skills as a bowler? Well, now is the ...time!
After layoffs, lockdowns, and off-seasons the #1 question I get asked as a coach is -- "Where do I start?"
Check out this video of a tool that I use and think you should too - a self-assessment. Find out where you are doing well and where you are lacking and use this tool to plan out your training and how you are going to raise your game.

Learning how to bowl? Need to tweak your current delivery? Coaching and need a good process of showing a delivery? Look no further!
This is the first installment ...of a 3 part series on Delivering a Lawn Bowl.
THE GRIP
Coach Darryl Fitzgerald shows off the do's and don'ts of a solid fundamentally sound grip that should help start off a perfect delivery!
Steps to the perfect grip:
- Relax your hand, natural spread of fingers - don't force anything!
- Place bowl so middle and ring fingers are the only fingers on the running surface
- Index and pinky fingers lay loosely on the grips
- Thumb is raised into the middle of the bowl on the side, not too high or too low
- Let the bowl roll off the two fingers on the running surface
Your grip should be comfortable, stress-free, and stable!

This is the second installment ...of a 3 part series on Delivering a Lawn Bowl.
THE STANCE
Coach Darryl Fitzgerald shows off the do's and don'ts of a solid and fundamentally sound stance that should help build a stable and reliable delivery!
Steps to the perfect stance:
- Back foot should step onto mat towards your point of aim
- Front foot should step so it is parallel or slightly in front of your back foot shoulder-width apart
- Knees slightly bent
- Back and Head tilted slightly forward
- Bowling arm slightly bent at the elbow and bowl should be below your waist
- Non-Bowling arm touching elbow or loosely at your side
Your stance should be comfortable, stress-free, and stable!

Two hotly requested items in this video - How to pick and use your Point of Aim and how to manage Weight Control!
Bonus: Using Visualization!
Look no further! Coach Darryl ...will take you through everything you need to be the best bowls player ever!
Use the drill shown in the video to train on all the aspects of Point of Aim, Weight Control and Visualization.
Point of Aim:
For beginners:
🧿 Start with a static point to aim at on the bank or beyond (rink markers, fence posts, etc)
🧿 Roll the bowl toward that target POA in a straight line
🧿 Adjust focal point based on results
🧿 The Goal is to roll straight at that target over and over (use targets/CDs/circles on the green to train)
Advanced:
🧿 Draw your target line from the POA static point onto the green (allows for proper head position)
🧿 Focus on that point and roll the bowl straight toward that target
🧿 Adjust focal point based on results
🧿 The Goal is to roll straight at that target over and over (use targets/CDs/circles on the green to train)
Weight Control:
🧿 Use mental training and natural motion to add or subtract weight
🧿 Do not force yourself to do something:
Big backswing, Big Step, Reduce Follow-through, etc.
🧿Use focal points on the green from POA to adjust weight - look farther up the green to more distance and shorter for less distance
🧿Train to roll the bowl straight towards the apex of your visualized path where it will break and curl afterwards
