What is Australian Pairs?
For those not familiar with this type of draw here are the “Coles Notes”.
This is a pairs tournament where your partner throws two bowls to start the end. You then change places and you deliver four bowls after which you change places and your partner delivers the last two bowls. In the second end you deliver two bowls then your partner delivers four bowls and you deliver the last two bowls. This follows for all ends in the game. In this tournament there were 16 ends.
