Each player has a ball. As with normal bowling the ball can only bounce once before hitting the target on the wall.
The bowler then collects the rebound, ensuring the rebound does not get past them and then bowls again.
Encourage a good technique - High arm, drive through with back leg, ensure that the bowler's follows through is unrestricted.
If you are unable to set up a target on the wall use cones to indicate the preferred bounce height for the ball.
