Every week, when the weekend approaches, many people wonder how to spend Saturday and Sunday so that they can relax after working days, but do not sit at home at the computer or TV. One of the options for spending the weekend can be a trip to the bowling club. For example, in Vitebsk, three such institutions were opened.
There are many reasons to choose a bowling alley:
- Firstly, this game does not require any special physical preparation, which makes bowling accessible to almost everyone.
- Secondly, the rules are quite simple, and even a child can understand them.
- Thirdly, bowling does not need special equipment: before making the first throw, you only need to wear special shoes. Balls and pins are provided by the establishment.
Bowling Rules
The goal of this sports game is for as few attempts as possible with the ball to knock down all the pins lined with a triangle at the end of the track. The number of pins depends on the variety of bowling and can be equal to five, nine or ten. Each player in the frame has two shots, but he can get the opportunity to throw an additional ball.
If all the pins were shot in one throw, then this is a strike, for which the player receives 10 (9 or 5) points. In addition, points earned for the next two throws are also taken into account.
If a player knocks down pins in two throws, then this is called spar (5, 9 or 10 points, respectively). When calculating points, the first throw in the next frame is taken into account.
It may be that the pins will remain on the track after the second throw. In this case, the frame is considered open, and the player receives the number of points equal to the number of pins knocked down.
