Tenpin bowling is an indoor sport played all around the
world on a professional, amateur and social basis. It is a sport
that is very simple to learn, but difficult to master.
Players propel or roll a ball by hand
down a wooden lane in an attempt to knock down a target - 10 pins
arranged in a triangular pattern. The game is divided into 10 rounds
called frames. Players score points according to the number of pins
they knock down.
Tenpin bowling requires a high level of
hand-eye co-ordination and skill that is comparable to other
technical sports, such as golf or snooker.
Bowling is a popular participation sport,
with recreational bowling alleys commonly found in cities or towns
worldwide. Even amateur bowlers have felt the thrill of scoring a
"strike" knocking all 10 pins down with one ball. At the top level,
however, competitors aim to achieve this time and time again.
Tenpin Bowling Rules
A game of Tenpin Bowling consists of 10
frames, in which each bowler is given two chances to knock down the
pins. If the bowler scores a "strike" by knocking them all down on
the first ball, the frame is over.
If one or more are left standing, then
the player has a second ball to try to knock the rest down before
moving onto the next frame. If the player knocks the remaining pins
down with the second ball, this is called a "spare".
To score the game, one point is awarded
for every pin knocked down, with a bonus system for strikes and
spares. For a strike, the player scores double on his next two
balls. For a spare, the player scores double on his next ball only.
These bonuses are added to the score for
the initial frame. For example, the most that can be scored for a
single frame is 30 (10 for the initial strike and 10 bonus points
each for the next two successive strikes.)
Successive combinations of strikes and
spares can make scoring complicated, so most alleys have a
computerized scoring system.
If a player achieves a strike in the 10th
frame, he is awarded two extra balls to earn his bonus point, while
a 10th frame spare earns a single extra ball.
