The playing tactics of this version of Euchre are Incorrect.
When holding the right bower, a player in the team who has called trumps should lead it, not a low card. If you lead a low card, it gives the opposition the opportunity to take a trick with a low trump card, which shouldn't happen.
It is confusing for your partner to anticipate what card the next opposition player may hold, if their partner holds bowers, and does not play them in the correct order.
Also, the player in the lead should play their best card not the worst, (though not a trump, if the opposition has called trumps, unless you are strong in trumps.)
We won't even go into "cross trumping"!
I am finding it so frustrating playing this version of Euchre (because it does not follow the normal conventions of play), that I am going to delete it.
