Bowling Etiquette

Here are some reminders about bowling etiquette:

Stay in your lane: Stay on your lane or in the seating area behind your lane.

Wear bowling shoes: Bowling shoes help maintain the condition of the lanes.

Release the ball behind the foul line: If your foot crosses over the foul line, the pins you knock down don’t count towards your score.

Don’t linger on the approach: After your turn, don’t linger in the approach area.

Be respectful: Treat other bowlers with respect and avoid vulgarity or argument.

Wait for your turn: Be aware of when your turn is coming up and be ready to bowl.

Don’t use another bowler’s equipment: Ask permission before using another bowler’s equipment.

Keep the lanes clean: Remove any debris from the approach area after each throw.

Be mindful of others: Consider others and practice good sportsmanship.
