The maximum weight of a bowl was set at 3lbs.

Rule 1.3; any bowls travelling over a footer must be returned.

Rule 7.1.b. a disturbed bowl will be treated the same as a disturbed jack.

Rule 10.2. Nicotine inhalers have been added to the list of devices that cannot be used on the green during play unless there is a medical exemption.
