Find a bowling alley near my location

A long wooden lane, a large ball with three holes and 10 pins to be knocked over, bowling is fun sport to do occasionally or competitively. Throwing a strike or spare requires practice, which is why so many people like to go bowling.

What are the rules of the game?

Bowling is a sport that has the same rules of play worldwide. Each player may throw two times during his or her turn to get the pins over. In total you get ten turns which are also called frames. Someone who can bowl really well and is able to throw a strike all ten turns achieves a ‘perfect game’ of 300 points.

While bowling, wearing special bowling shoes is mandatory. This is just as well because the wooden lane where you bowl can be quite slippery. The art of bowling lies in throwing the heavy ball underhand, which requires a lot of technique. Someone who throws the ball in a way other than underhand can be disqualified immediately. This is something that happens more often in competition.

What does bowling cost?

Normally you pay per lane per hour to play. If you are going to play this game with a large group then it might be advisable to use multiple bowling lanes. That way everyone can play against each other without having to rush. Don’t have your own bowling shoes? Most bowling alleys rent shoes for the duration of your game, this of course costs extra.

Actually, you can make an evening of bowling as expensive as you want. In fact, many bowling alleys also have their own restaurant or bar where you can order food, snacks and drinks. With any luck, you can take advantage of a discount code or promotional coupon when you go online to book a bowling lane.

How long does a game of bowling take?

Generally, a game played with six people lasts one hour. Therefore, that is the maximum number of players that most bowling alleys will allow on a lane. That way, everyone has enough time to throw all their frames in a relaxed manner.
