How do I know how many SlipSocket™ to order?
Calculating the number of rinks and movements.
Answer the following:
- How many rinks do you have?
- How many movements would you like per rink?
You will require 1 SlipSocket™ and 1 Disc colour per movement
per rink.
For example:
A 4 rink green would like 3 movements per rink.
4 x 3 = 12 SlipSockets™ plus 12 disc each end.
Total required is:
24 SlipSockets™ & 24 Discs broken up into colours
- 8 red discs
- 8 blue discs
- 8 yellow discs
Add Number of Rink Markers:
Now consider if you would like to add a SlipSocket™ to host your rink marker at each end of the green.
If you have a 4 rink bowling green, you have 2 additional rink markers at each end.
This makes a total of 4 SlipSockets™ in addition to your rinks and movements.
To take our example from Step 1 - for a 4 rink bowling green you will now calculate:
24 Rink SlipSockets™ + 4 Marker SlipSockets™ = 28 SlipSockets™
Now add in your flag markers - 2m in from each corner - total of 4
28 + 4 = Total 32 SlipSockets™
PLUS 24 Coloured Discs
Calculate & Order
You now know exactly how many SlipSocket™ and Discs you will need to install into your ditch walls. Be sure to include any additional rinks for multi-directional play. You may want to just double your order.
