Short mat bowls is an indoor, year-round target sport where players roll bias-weighted balls called "woods" down a mat to get them closer to a smaller target ball, the "jack," than their opponent's bowls. The game is played on a smaller mat (around 45 feet long) and a key difference from lawn bowls is the presence of a central wooden block that must be played around, making it a game of skill and strategy. The objective is to score points by having your bowls closer to the jack than your opponent's at the end of an "end," with a bowl that hits the central block or goes off the sides being removed from play.
