⛪️CONFESS YOUR LAWN BOWL SINS⛪️

Forgive me bowls gods for I have sinned..
Are you a sinner or have seen one?

We know you’ve done it… 😅

😈Bowled the opposite shot that your skip called
😈Blamed the green instead of your weight
😈 “Accidentally” touched the jack while measuring
😈Celebrated a wick for shot like you won the Australian Open
😈Bowled out of turn
😈Cheeky measuring

Now it’s time to come clean.

No judgement.
Take the weight off your shoulders 🤣
