Where do you position your feet?
Simple solution which can have more consistency.

πŸ”₯🟒 NEW SERIES ALERT β€” AND THIS ONE STARTS FROM THE GROUND UP! 🟒πŸ”₯

We spend hours talking about line, weight, backswing, release and follow-through… but what if better consistency actually starts before the bowl even moves? πŸ‘€

Introducing our brand-new series:

πŸ‘£ LAWN BOWLS FOOT PLACEMENT

ONE LESS VARIABLE IN YOUR DELIVERY

Every time you step onto the mat, your feet create the foundation for what happens next. If that foundation keeps changing, you're asking your body to reproduce the same delivery from a different starting position every time.

🎯 Same setup.
πŸ‘Ÿ Same alignment.
πŸ” More repeatability.
🟒 One less variable to worry about.

Over this series, we're going to dig deeper into foot placement, alignment and consistency on the mat β€” not because there is one magical position that suits every bowler, but because understanding your own setup can help make your delivery far more repeatable.

πŸ’₯ CONTROL THE CONTROLLABLES!

And here's the question to kick off the series:

πŸ‘‡ When you step onto the mat, do you consciously place your feet in the same position every time β€” or have you never really thought about it?

Drop your answer in the comments. πŸ‘‡ I think this one could start a VERY interesting bowls discussion! 😁🟒

πŸ†πŸ”₯ SERIES FINALE | LAWN BOWLS DELIVERY TECHNIQUE πŸ”₯πŸ†

We’ve worked through the delivery. We’ve broken down the fundamentals. We’ve looked at the little things that can make a BIG difference...

Now it’s time for the SERIES FINALE! 🎯🟒

A great lawn bowls delivery isn’t about making things complicated β€” it’s about making the basics repeatable.

βš–οΈ BALANCE β€” Stay stable and in control.
⏱️ RHYTHM β€” Find your natural tempo and stick to it.
πŸ” REPETITION β€” Build a delivery you can trust under pressure.

And remember β€” mastering your delivery doesn’t mean you stop learning.

πŸŽ₯ Analyse your delivery.
πŸ§‘β€πŸ« Work with your coaches.
πŸ“ Keep track of your practice.
🎯 Make small adjustments and build confidence through repetition.

Because when the pressure is on, you don't want to be thinking about every part of your delivery...

πŸ”₯ YOU WANT TO TRUST IT.

πŸ† Every champion started with the basics.

MASTER YOUR DELIVERY β€” AND LET THE REST OF YOUR GAME FOLLOW.

πŸ‘‡ To finish our series, tell us:
What is the ONE thing you’ve learned about your own delivery that has made the biggest difference to your game?

Let’s get the bowlers talking! πŸ‘‡πŸŸ’
