I believe a nontuple would be a break that would start at #4. Also, I think it is technically a nonuple.
Nontuple or Nonuple refers to a turn in which the striker makes all 12 wickets with one ball while sending his or her partner ball through 9 wickets. So the partner ball started for hoop 4.
This was finished with the last four peels while making the last four wickets, called a straight quadruple; impressive in it's own right.
Very helpful -- thank you.
Admittedly, I haven't yet played the Association game and I've only been playing the U.S. Rules six-wicket game for just over a year. So, the Association game is a complete mystery to me. Hopefully, we're going to give it a try later this fall or in the spring.
By the way, congrats on your run at the World Championships last May. It was a lot of fun to follow via the web updates.
