BOWLING

BOWLING

10-pin bowling, commonly called bowling, is a sport practiced indoors, very popular especially in North America.
The game consists in knocking down the greatest number of pins, out of a total of 10, with a bowl of variable weight (from a minimum of 6 up to a maximum of 16 pounds, which corresponds to about 7 kg) provided with three holes in the which the thumb and only the last phalanx of the middle and ring fingers must be inserted.

The pins are arranged at the end of the straight lane in a triangular pattern. The correct throwing technique foresees that the shot is carried out by placing the bowl on the palm of the hand facing upwards, the elbow inclined 90° at the height of the side and keeping the forearm stretched and the wrist straight. The starting position is with legs together.
The game takes place on a track specially built in wood or synthetic material and delimited by two "channels" (gutters), no less than 8.89 cm deep; shoes with special soles (in natural leather or suede) must be used, which help to slide up to the edge of the throwing area of the lane (called approach), where the ball is thrown and follows its trajectory up to the pins.

The game is played in a free number of players, in the case of amateur game, over ten rounds. Each round of the game can include two situations: either knocking down all the pins (in this case the term used is strike), or partially knocking them down (in this case you are entitled to an additional shot to try to hit the remaining pins, and if this happens, the term used is spare).
The maximum score that can be reached is 300, a total given by the sum of 12 consecutive strikes (1 strike in each round for the first 9 rounds, called frames, 3 strikes for the last frame). When a spare is obtained at the end of the tenth round, one is entitled to a further single additional shot; if, still in the final round, the result of the shot is a strike, the additional shots become two.

It also has a large following of practitioners at a competitive level in Italy and, like all professional sports, it has its own federation, the FISB (Federazione Italiana Sport Bowling) a sports discipline associated with CONI. The competitive circuit is divided into an amateur circuit and a competitive circuit, and the latter is divided into five categories: 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and beginners.

The ranking tournaments take place throughout the year.
