Does anyone actually know what the rules of lawnbowls are? I feel like I've played like 5 times and no one has actually explained it to me. Are there points? Do the points matter?

Also the Adelaide Spectres recently had their end of winter season celebration playing lawn bowls!

Huge congrats to the our award winners

- Alicia, who won the Sharpshooter award

Massive shout out to Australia Post who are supporting the Adelaide Spectres with an Australia Post Community Grant

This is a huge boost to our ability to continue to host our free come-and-try sessions, open 3v3 competitions, social events, and our regular training sessions, as this funding will assist in our venue hiring 🏀

We're proud to be a community-led q***r organisation making a positive impact in Adelaide, and are extremely grateful to Auspost in helping support that goal 🫶
