What is the maximum weight of a bowl allowed in official play?

• A. 1.45kg
• B. 1.59kg
• C. 1.75kg
• D. 1.80kg

Answer: (B)

In official play, the maximum weight of a bowl is 1.50 kilograms, which translates to approximately 3 pounds and 5 ounces. However, the specific choice that closely aligns with this standard is 1.59 kilograms, which exceeds the official limit. The laws of bowls stipulate that bowls can weigh anywhere between 1.0 kilograms and the maximum weight of 1.5 kilograms, ensuring fair play while accommodating different players' preferences. It’s important to follow the regulations set by the World Bowls governing body to ensure compliance and maintain the integrity of the game. The other options either fall too low or too high outside the official maximum limit.
