In rounders, when a bowler has the ball, play is paused, and the bowler prepares to deliver the ball to the batter. The batter must stand in the designated batting area and attempt to hit the ball once it is bowled. Fielders are positioned strategically to catch the ball or retrieve it quickly after it's hit, while the batter aims to score points by running to the bases. If the bowler successfully delivers the ball and it is not hit, the batter may have opportunities to bat again or be out if certain conditions are met.
In a rounders match, a good ball is typically one that is pitched within the strike zone and is deliverable for the batter to hit. There is no fixed limit on the number of good balls; however, the bowler aims to deliver as many good balls as possible within their set number of deliveries. Generally, a bowler can bowl a maximum of six legitimate balls per over, but if a batter hits a good ball, they can continue to play until they are out.
A backward hit in rounders is when the batter hits the ball backwards and it goes behind the batting section. The batter can take the first post when this happens but can not go further until the ball is back in play.

In rounders, bowling umpires play a crucial role in overseeing the game and ensuring that the rules are followed. They are responsible for making decisions on whether a bowler delivers a fair ball, calling no-balls and wides, and monitoring the conduct of players. Additionally, they assist in determining the outcome of plays, such as whether a batter is out or safe, and help maintain the overall flow of the game. Their authority is essential for enforcing rules and ensuring fair play.
the backstops job/ role in rounders is to guide the bowlers throw to the batter by cupping there hands in the appropriate ending space for the ball and allowing this to be a target for the bowler. also, if a batter misses the ball and it was an acceptable throw(not a foul ball) then the backstop must receive the ball and throw it to the appropriate post to help get the batter out. if the batter hits the ball backwards, it is also within the role of the backstop to receive this ball and walk to the back-line (as the batter by this time shall be waiting at first ready to run on when play is continued) and accurately throw the ball either to the bowler who if receives the ball will prevent runners running on to other posts, or the backstop will pass to the fielder on second base who will stump out the batter if they had decided to run on. i think i covered everything, well, hope this helps you.

To stump someone out in rounders, the fielder must have the ball in their hand and touch the wicket before the batter reaches the crease. The batter typically attempts to run towards the next base after hitting the ball, and if the fielder successfully hits the wicket with the ball while the batter is out of the crease, the batter is out. It's crucial for the fielder to act quickly and accurately to execute this play effectively.
Play as normal teams, but once the batting team have hit the ball, the fielding team have to throw the ball to first base, who throws to second, then to third and finally to fourth. The batting team receive a rounder if they run around quicker than the fielders can throw the ball around.
