The low maintenance requirements of Dales’ needlepunch bowls surfaces is also very popular with greenskeepers and the budget-minded.  The green is always ready year ‘round.  Top player and Dales Sales Manager, Richard White, maintains that “Top players have found that playing on artificial surfaces increases their skill levels.  Many top players practice on artificial surfaces prior to participating in major tournaments”.  In fact, the 2010 Commonwealth Games in Delhi will be played on Dales artificial Surfaces.

Demand to play bowls indoors is also increasing at an accelerated pace.  The ever aging population has made Carpet Bowling much in demand in most recreation centres, because of the use of smaller, lighter, bowls and the 30-foot length of play.

However, the biggest increased demand for indoor play comes from the popularity of the Short Mat game.  Played with normal lawn  bowls on a 45’ by 6’ carpet, Short Mat has attained a very high level of popularity.  Big money tournaments are springing up wherever the game is played.  Because the Short Mat game is portable, as mats are easy to move about and roll out, clubs can emerge in school gyms, convention centres, hotel ballrooms, banquet halls, and, even on factory floors or office building lobbies.
