 HISTORY OF BOWLING

Bowling has been traced to articles found in

the tomb of an Egyptian child buried in 5200
B.C. The primitive implements included nine
pieces of stone at which a stone "ball" was
rolled, the ball having first to roll through an
archway made of three pieces of marble.

 5 TYPES OF BOWLING

1. 10-Pin Bowling
2. 9-Pin Bowling
3. 5-Pin Bowling
4. Candlepin Bowling
5. Duckpin Bowling
 10-Pin Bowling

Known to most Americans simply as "bowling," 10-pin is the

most ubiquitous style of the game. While some version of
10-pin has existed in the United States since before the
The ball: Heavy, typically about 6–16 pounds, with three
finger holes
The pins: Though pins may be made of wood or plastic,
rules dictate that each one must weigh between 3 pounds, 6
ounces and 3 pounds, 10 ounces, and that each one
measures 15" tall and 4.7" wide. The 10 pins are arranged
in a triangular formation known as the "frame."
Number of frames in a game: 10
Number of turns each frame: 2 (unless a strike is rolled on
the first turn)
9-Pin Bowling
• The ball: Similar to a 10-pin ball, complete with finger holes
• The pins: As noted, the pins are configured in a diamond shape, with a red pin
in the middle. All games of 9-pin are manually set by a human pin-setter.
• Number of frames in a game: 6
• Number of turns each frame: 2 (even if all pins are knocked down on the first
turn)
 5-Pin Bowling
• The ball: Five-pin bowling balls are small enough
to fit in the hand, so they do not have finger holes.
• The pins: Smaller than 10-pins, but larger than
duck pins (see below), 5-pins each have a rubber
hand around their middle that makes them fly
harder when they are hit, thus increasing the
likelihood that they'll take down others around
them.
• Number of frames in a game: 10
• Number of turns each frame: 3
 Candlepin Bowling
• The ball: Candlepin balls are the smallest
bowling balls, weighing in at a maximum
of 2 pounds, 7 ounces, and each has a
diameter of about 4.5".
• The pins: As mentioned, the thin, cylinder-
like candlepins are notoriously tough to
tackle. And the fallen pins also aren't
cleared between frames, adding another
layer of difficulty. They are arranged in a
triangular shape, just like 10-pins.
• Number of frames in a game: 10 (though
frames are commonly referred to as
"boxes")
• Number of turns each frame: 3
Duckpin Bowling
• The ball: Duckpin bowling balls weigh about 3.75
pounds and do not have finger holes.
• The pins: They look like shorter, fatter versions of
10-pins. But they're also lighter, which makes
rolling a strike in duckpin harder than it is in 10-
pin.
• Number of frames in a game: 10
• Number of turns each frame: 3
WHAT ARE 3 RULES IN BOWLING?
• Throwing a ball down a lane to knock over pins.
• It consists of 10 frames.
• A player may throw the ball a total of two times per frame.

BOWLING OBJECTIVES
• The objective in bowling is to keep the bowling ball on the
lane for the entire length and hit as many pins as possible. –
60 foot lane – 10 pins – 2 tries
STRIKE
• If the player successfully knock all pins down on their first
throw.
GUTTER BALL
• A ball that is rolled off the lane and into the gutter.
SPARE BOWLING
• is when you knock all the
ten pins within the two
shots in a frame. In this
instance, the structure will
be scored after the player
takes the following image.
BOWLING EQUIPMENT
BOWLING BALL
• A round sphere
• 27 inches diameter
• 6 – 16 pounds weight
HOW TO HOLD THE BALL

• A good grip enables you to properly release the ball and thereby
make a good delivery.
• Correctly support the weight of the ball in your non-bowling hand.
• Softly place your bowling fingers, normally the middle two fingers
of your bowling hand, and your thumb into the holes drilled into the
bowling ball.
• Make sure your fingers are inserted as far as the holes permit and
the same for your thumb.
DOING A BASIC GRIP

INSERT YOUR FINGERS

INTO THE BALL.
•If you're using the popular 3-hole bowling
ball, place your dominant hand thumb in
the larger bottom hole and your middle
and ring fingers in the two adjacent holes
at the top.
 USE BOTH HANDS TO HOLD THE BALL

. Rest the ball in your dominant hand, but use

the support of your free hand to cradle the
ball from underneath as you move towards
the lane. This allows you to steady the ball
and prevents you causing strain to your
bowling hand.
GRIP THE BALL LIGHTLY
• If your grip is too tight, you will
not be able to release the ball
smoothly, and this will
negatively impact your aim.
The ball should slide off your
fingers with ease.
Test how far your hand stretches. Once fingers are comfortably
positioned in the holes, you should be able to lightly fit a pen
between the bowling ball and your hand. If the pen can lightly
touch your hand, and the ball with ease, your grip is secure.
Don't overstretch your hands, or grip bowling balls too tightly.
BOWLING PINS
• Made from wood and covered in plastic.
• 15 inches tall and weighs about 3 pounds.
 DIFFERENT KINDS OF BOWLING PINS

Five Pin – lightweight pin that is about 12 in high and has a

rubber band around.
Canadian Duckpin – it has a rubber band around it to make it
heavier.
American Duckpin – lightweight and 9.4 in high.
Tenpin – weighs 3.5 to 3.7 lb and measures 15 in high.
Candlepin - cylindrical pin that is about 16 in high.
BOWLING SHOES
• Bowling shoe allow for a
smooth glide on the wood
floor.
• Other shoes: street shoes
& sneakers can damage
bowling lanes.
BOWLING BAG

• a bag for carrying a bowling ball and

often bowling shoes or other
equipment.
 SCORING INDIVIDUAL FRAMES

Understand the parts of the bowling scorecard. On the far-left edge of the bowing
scorecard is a column of empty spaces where you can write the names of each player
who is participating in the game. To the right of the names are 10 scorecard frames.
Each frame is used to total the score of a single turn frame.
• Use the scorecard frame that corresponds to the turn you’re taking. Above each
column of scorecard frames is a number. These numbers proceed from left to right,
starting with "1" and rising to "10." Tally each player’s score within the scorecard that
matches the frame they are bowling. For instance, on your first turn, use the first
scorecard frame. On your fifth turn, use the fifth scorecard frame, and so on.
Write the score for the first roll in the upper left box for that turn. Each player gets to bowl
twice in each turn except in the last (tenth) frame unless they get all the pins down with
their first ball. Each player will bowl a maximum of 21 times per game. It's important that
you record each of these rolls individually, so record the number of pins you knock down
on your first roll in the upper left box. For instance, if you knock over 2 pins on your first
roll, write the numeral "2" in the upper left box.
Write the second roll's score in the upper right-hand box for that turn. After you've rolled
for the second time, add that number to your scorecard. Make sure you only write down
the number of pins you knocked down in your second roll, not the total number of pins you
knocked down for the turn.[1]For example, if you knocked over 4 pins on your second roll
(and 2 pins on your first roll), you'd write the number "4" in the upper right-hand
corner, not the number "6."
Write an "X" in the small box in the top-right of the scorecard frame to indicate a strike. A strike indicates
that you knocked down all 10 pins in your first roll. While the small box in the top-right of the scorecard
frame is typically reserved for scoring information that relates to the second roll of your turn, scoring rules
make an exception for the strike.
• Place a forward slash in the small box in the top-right corner of the scorecard frame to
indicate a spare. A forward slash (a line connecting the bottom left corner to the upper right
corner of the box in the upper right) indicates that you didn’t knock down all the pins on
your first roll, but you did on your second roll.
• Mark a foul by writing an "F." If you step past the foul line (the line beyond which a bowler cannot
step) on your first roll for that turn, place an "F" in the upper center box. If you step past the foul
line on your second roll for that turn, place an "F" inside the small box in the upper right of the
scorecard frame.
Mark the scorecard with a dash if you miss the pins. If your ball goes in the gutter or if you
otherwise miss the pins, indicate the miss with a horizontal dash ( － ). For instance, if
your ball went in the gutter on your first roll, you’d mark a dash in the small box in the top-
center of the scorecard frame. If your ball went in the gutter on your second roll, you’d
mark a dash in the small box to the upper right of the scorecard frame.
BOWLING BASICS
The sport of bowling can be played competitively or recreationally
and it requires a special set of equipment to actively be played,
including a bowling lane, bowling balls, and bowling pins. The sport
involves a bowler using a bowling ball to knock down the pins at the
ends of the lane, trying to knock down as many pins as possible with
every roll.
