Bowling is a game whose main goal is to knock down 5, 9 or 10 (depending on the variety) pins, lined up in a triangle at the end of the lane, with special balls in the least number of attempts.
Today it is one of the most popular sports games in the world. Bowling is played professionally in the USA, Japan, Russia and other countries.
A trip to the bowling alley with friends can be a great way to spend an evening after work or a day off. For example, in the city of Khimki near Moscow, there are several large establishments where you can play this game.
Rules
The rules of bowling are relatively simple, and even a child can understand them - that is why the game is popular not only among athletes, but also loved by ordinary people. In addition, bowling does not require any special physical training and special equipment. All you need is special shoes.
Almost everyone knows what a strike is. However, it is not necessary to knock down all the pins with one ball. If you do it with two throws (spar), you can get as many points for one frame as for a strike.
Most often in amateur bowling, after two throws (that's how many attempts to knock out all the pins each player has in one frame), there are still figures on the lane. In this case, the frame is called open. The amount of points depends on how many pins were knocked down.
The number of points also depends on the subsequent rolls. When playing 10-pin bowling, you can get a maximum of 300 points in one set if you only hit strikes.
