The object of the game is to knock down all ten pins with one ball (a strike). Failing this, to knock the remainder down with your second ball (a spare). The more skilled you are, the closer you will get to the perfect score of 300!

Get the ball rolling and enjoy this social activity. Many of the bowling centres organise group parties, all you have to do is turn up, events and many promotional offers are often provided chech out the bowl.

Countless people try their hand at Tenpin Bowling each year and to most of them the physical act of rolling a bowling ball is fun and relaxing. Most people then progress to joining a league, where it is possible to win trophies and awards. The organisation of leagues is usually taken for granted and the story behind Tenpin Bowling and the British Tenpin Bowling Association is overlooked.

The British Tenpin Bowling Association (B.T.B.A.) is the National Governing Body for the Sport of Tenpin Bowling in Britain. In this capacity, the responsibilities of the B.T.B.A. include the Coach Education and Qualification System. Being part of that system, the B.T.B.C.A. comes under the umbrella of the BTBA, to which the Chairman reports annually, through the B.T.B.C.A. President (the Director of National Coaching).

The B.T.B.C.A. however, is run solely by a committee, elected by the members annually at the A.G.M., subject to their good standing with the B.T.B.A.
