Indoor bowls team names
Indoor and short mat teams has 19, among them Carpet Bowlers Collective, Wall to Wall Carpet and Short Mat Shufflers. In short mat bowls a wooden block sits in the middle of the mat, which is where Past the Block comes from.
The bowls in the jokes
The jack, a small ball, is also called the kitty. A bowl is biased, so it runs in a curve. A toucher is a bowl that touches the jack, and a bowl that finishes inside its target is narrow: see Kitty Litter, Touch Wood and Straight and Narrow.
