General Information  National and District
 
  Crown v. Flat green: In both codes of the game, the aim is to play the bowls so that they are nearer to the jack than those of the opposition. A player will count as many points as that player has bowls nearer to the jack than any of the opposing bowls when that end is completed. The first player to reach a pre-determined score (usually twenty-one points), or has the most points if the games are over a fixed number of ends, will be the winner. One of the main differences between the codes, other than the nature of the green,  is that Crown Green ends are played in any direction on the green whereas in Flat Green, ends are played in alternate directions along a rink.
