Non-runner no-bet. The event must start within 1 week of the scheduled start for bets to stand. Outright markets may be subject to a Rule 4 (Deduction).


Match Betting


A match must be played within 48 hours of the original scheduled start time for bets to stand. If a match does not take place for any reason (e.g. a player withdraws injured) all pre-match bets will be void, and stakes returned. In the event of a match starting but not being completed then the player progressing to the next round will be deemed the winner. 

For the following markets bets are void if the statutory number of sets is not completed or are changed. In the event of a set starting but not being completed, the following markets will be void, unless the specific market outcome is already determined: 

  • Match Handicap
  • Total Points (2-Way)
  • Total Sets
  • Total Points Odd/Even
  • Player Total Points (2-Way)


Except for Premier League Bowls in the event of a tie, then the result at the end of the tie-breaker will be used for settlement purposes. In Premier League Bowls, a tie price is offered.

Settlement of Wagers

Statistics provided by the official score(s) provider or the official website of the relevant competition or fixture will be used to settle wagers. Where statistics from an official score(s) provider or official website are not available or there is significant evidence that the official score(s) provider or official website is incorrect, we will use independent evidence to support bet settlement.
In the absence of consistent, independent evidence or the presence of significant conflicting evidence, bets will be settled based on our statistics.
