No device should be attached to the ball which either detaches itself from the ball
or is affixed to it during its movement, after delivery
A player, with permission from ABC/WIBC, can use special equipment to help
him grasp and/or deliver the ball only if it is in the place of his hand which has
been lost by amputation or otherwise
The equipment must not provide impetus or mechanical thrust to the ball
What is a Foul?
When any part of the players body crosses the foul line during or after the delivery, a
foul occurs. The ball is in play after the delivery, until the same player or another is on
the approach position for the next delivery.
When a foul is recorded, the player receives no credit for the pins knocked down, though
the delivery is counted for the frame.
When objects from the players pocket falls on the foul line (pen/card/etc) it is not
considered a foul. The player must solicit permission to retrieve the fallen object from
beyond the foul line
