Deutsch: Bowls ist ein dem Boule ähnliches englisches Kugelspiel, gespielt in zwei Varianten, bei dem die Kugeln eine exzentrische Massenverteilung besitzen und dadurch auf einer gekrümmten Bahn laufen.

English: Bowls (a.k.a. lawn bowls/lawn bowling) is a precision sport where slightly radially asymmetrical balls (bowls) are aimed closer to a smaller white ball (the "jack"/"kitty") than an opponent. It is related to bocce and pétanque.

Suomi: Nurmikeilailu on peli, jossa tavoitteena on saada pyöritettyä palloja lähimmäksi pienempää maalipalloa. Ajatus on hyvin pitkälle samanlainen kuinpetanquessa ja curlingissa.

Français : Les Bowls est un sport d'origine britannique comparable à la pétanque mais se pratiquant sur herbe avec de grosses boules asymétriques.

Nederlands: Bowls is een sport waarbij de bedoeling is dat een speler of team zijn ballen (bowls) zo dicht mogelijk bij een 'doel'bal (jack) weet te plaatsen, voor elke bowl die dichter bij de jack ligt dan de tegenstander, verkrijgt men een punt. Er wordt gespeeld in teams van 4 personen (Fours), van 3 personen (Triples), van 2 personen (Pairs) en van 1 persoon (Single).

Svenska: Bowls är ett brittiskt spel som påminner omboccia och boule och som liksom dessa har sina rötter i urgamla sten- och kägelspel. Bowls spelas på gräsmatta eller på konstgjort underlag med liknande egenskaper, såsom konstgräs.
