Sport Rotations

So for the past 4 weeks we have been playing different kinds of sports every Thursday. There are 4 different rotations korfball which is like a mix of netball and basketball. Soft ball which is like cricket but not really you have to hit a ball off a tee and the fielders have gloves on and there are 3 bases you have to run past to get home and get points like baseball. We had cricket which I don't think I need to tell you the rules of cricket you probably all know. And for the last sport we had to throw little ball and complete challenges with them like if you hit the middle of the circle you get 50 points the name of the game was lawn bowls we did 8 challenges I think and my team got like 310 points but the other teams got more points then us but we came like 4th out of I don't know how many.

Have you heard of lawn bowls before?
