HISTORY The earliest forms of bowling can be dated back to
Ancient Egypt and the Roman Empire about 2,000 years ago. The game
entailed tossing stone objects as close as possible to other stone
objects. Originally the game used nine pins and involved lots of
gambling and was banned. An outdoor game for most of its history,
indoor bowling became popular in the mid-nineteenth century after
the introduction of indoor lanes in New York in 1840. Using 10 pins
took the place of the illegal nine pin game that involved gambling
and was banned.
HOW TO PLAY Bowling is an individual sport, one can play on
their own or against others Play begins with a person throwing
bowling the ball down a lane The game consists of ten frames, the
bowler has two chances to knock down the pins in each frame When
keeping score, bonus points are awarded; the next 2 balls (for a
strike) or 1 ball (for a spare) If the bowler knocks down all pins
in the 10th frame with one roll (strike), bowler gets 2 more rolls
If the bowler knocks down all pins in the 10th frame with two rolls
(spare), bowler gets 1 more roll A perfect game is 12 strikes
maximum score 300 points The player with the highest score after 10
frames is the winner.
