Club Assist

Looking to become a Jack Attack club?

Why Jack Attack? Because it is a fun and fast-paced format from the traditional form of lawn bowls, aimed to encourage participation with non-bowling members of the community.

Jack Attack is super easy to play and by adopting a nationally branded program you are helping improve recognition of a game of bowls that breaks down the perception often attributed to the game.

By becoming a Jack Attack club you are supporting national advertising – the more times the logo and brand is seen it assists create further breakthrough to non-bowlers. Using the Jack Attack brand helps the best form of marketing possible – verbal marketing – word of mouth referrals, that bowls is fun, can be played in a short time frame and is a great entry to competitive bowls.

Jack Attack is a modified version from the traditional form of lawn bowls, with three players per team who each deliver their two bowls within an end, aiming to get as close as possible to the jack.

The game emulates the style of play of the Bowls Premier League, which is broadcast live on Fox Sports.

Jack Attack allows for the BPL format to be played directly at clubs across the nation, capitalising on its social, fast-paced format to help encourage participation with non-bowls audiences, by appealing to people not able to commit to playing in longer formats like pennant, and providing a more structured competition than barefoot bowls.

It is super easy to play. It’s three players per team, each with two bowls, who play two sets of five ends, and if the sets are split then a one-end tie-breaker is played to determine a winner – and it’s all over in less than 75 minutes!

If your club is considering joining 260 other clubs across the country as a Jack Attack venue to attract new members, then please contact Regional Bowls Manager – Warren Griffin for further information
