About Bowling
There are many forms of bowling, ten-pin bowling being the most popular. Players try to score points by rolling a bowling ball down a flat lane in attempts to knock over objects called pins.
Bowling History
The first forms of bowling date back to ancient Egypt. Bowling can also trace its origins to ancient Finland, Yemen, and Germany. English, Dutch, and German settlers brought their own versions of bowling to the New World. Evidence of the game in America comes in a quote in the short story "Rip Van Winkle," by author Washington Irving, when Rip wakes up to the sound of "nine pins." The first standardized rules were established in New York City, on September 9, 1895. Currently, over 95 million people participate in bowling in over ninety countries around the world.
Bowling Tips
Warming up and stretching helps prevent injuries. To avoid back and wrist injuries, bowling balls should be picked up with both hands. In addition, one should bend their knees when picking up a bowling ball. For safety players should wear proper bowling shoes.
