Bowling · Loading & Bound
What is the bound in a bowling action?
The bound is the jump from back foot to front foot that sets up the delivery stride. amp reads its height and length, and classifies the action type — side-on, front-on or midway — because what counts as correct downstream depends on which action you actually have. Two criteria, 8 points of 100.
What each band looks like
Bound Height & Length
4 of 100 · filmed side-on- Looks right
- Controlled bound with visible height and forward distance.
- Can manage
- A minimal or slightly flat bound.
- Needs attention
- No real bound, more of a shuffle into the crease.
These are the criteria as amp scores them. Reading your own footage against them is free and always will be — what amp adds is doing it the same way every week, so the change between one session and the next is a number rather than an impression. Apply for the pilot.
