Abstract

A lawn bowls scoring and game monitoring arrangement including a camera that follows from above the kitty in a game of lawn bowls. The camera arrangement works in communication with a distance meter arrangement adapted to interpret images from said camera arrangement for measuring a distance between a delivered bowl with said kitty with functionality to recognise a bowl or bowls from competing players. A display arrangement and the distance meter arrangement are enabled to translate the distance of the nearest bowl or bowls to the kitty of a player, team or group compared to the bowl or bowls of a competing player, team or group to the kitty as information displayable as a score upon a visual display unit.
