Well here is the gossip, 2004 NSW State Champs will be at Illawarra Strikezone at Easter.

Strike zone for shield - wood lanes

If you think you are good enough to bowl shield then you should be able to bowl well on both surfaces.
Lets face it its the pattern and oil on the lanes which make the most difference between bowling centers.
Say for instance that central roll- offs are at a center with wood lanes. What help is that going to be for central if the oil pattern isnt the same. And they most likey would have forgoten the shot they played at roll-offs by the time nationals comes around any way.
Everyone who bowls shield has bowled on both wood and synthetic lanes so they should know what to do or how to adjust on each surface.
