Oklahoma Open. It wasn’t a show that they’d want to take on the road. They might hear a few gongs reverberate around them. Page and Barnes combined for three gutter balls on their strike attempts and Barnes added a bowling sin when he misfired on the 10-pin on a spare attempt during his 206-185 victory. And Page and Barnes are no slouches: Barnes is an 18-time PBA Tour winner; Page is a four-time PBA Tour champion. Yet, two of the San Fernando Valley’s top bowlers expressed a great deal of sympathy for Page and Barnes’ falling into a gutter trap. Said Johnnie Englehart: “It shows they’re hu- man. That’s life in the big city.” Said Elizabeth Fonvergne: “They’re human. They’re not infallible. It can happen to anyone. Anybody can throw a gutter ball.” The sympathetic posture of Winnetka Bowl regulars Englehart and Fonvergne is remarkable considering the two Valley aces have a history of keeping the ball on the lane – and steaming to- ward the pocket. “I really can’t remember when I rolled one [gutter] last,” said the right-handed Englehart, who is averaging in the 230s. “It was probably in Tournament veteran Elizabeth Fonvergne is averaging 210. Photo juniors when I bounced it off my ankle.” by Fred Eisenhammer “Oh my God, I can’t remember the last time I rolled a gutter on the first ball,” said the left-handed Fonvergne, who is averaging 210. “That’s something you don’t normally think about. Putting the ball on the lane seems so automatic.” Fonvergne also expressed compassion toward Page and Barnes in regard to the challenging 32-foot Wolf oil-lane pattern on which they competed in the Oklahoma Open. Fonvergne, a tournament veteran, said pro bowlers face “freaky patterns that dictate they have to throw those wide shots.” And the ball can be thrown off course with oil clumps in the way, Fonvergne said. Even though he mustered considerable compassion toward the two gutter-prone pros, Englehart still put the Page- Ace bowler Johnnie Englehart is averaging in the 230s. Barnes match in context.

  • Bowling Study Guide
    BOWLING STUDY GUIDE History The history of bowling can be traced back to the Stone Age. The first evidence of the game was discovered by the British Anthropologist Sir Flinders Petrie and his team of archaeologists in Egypt in the 1930s. He unearthed a collection of objects from a small childs grave that appeared to have been the primitive form of the game. However, some argue that the game evolved much later than that. William Pehle, a German historian, claimed that the game of bowling originated in Germany around 300 AD. In Germany, the game had its origin as a religious ceremony for determining absence of sin. This game, introduced by the German monks to the masses, flourished as a customary test of faith. Objective: Players will bowl (roll) their balls down the lane, and try and knock down as many pins as they can. Tenpin bowling is an activity which is popular for both fun and for sport. A game last for ten frames, with up to two balls in each frame. When all frames have been played, the player with the highest score is the winner. The bowling area: The balls are delivered (bowled, rolled) along a narrow lane, also called an alley. The lane is 1.07 metres (42 inches) wide, and 18.29 metres (60 feet) long, from the foul line to the head pin (the first pin in the triangular setup). There is of course, an area for players to approach the lane. They must not step across the foul line. Scoring: The rules of bowling are fairly simple.

  • Ten-Pin Bowling - Overview Ten-Pin Bowling Is a Sport Where Players Try to Hit 10 Pins Placed at the End of a Wooden Lane Using a Bowling Ball
    COMPILED BY : - GAUTAM SINGH STUDY MATERIAL – SPORTS 0 7830294949 Ten-Pin Bowling - Overview Ten-pin bowling is a sport where players try to hit 10 pins placed at the end of a wooden lane using a bowling ball. The pins at the end of the lane are arranged in a triangular shape by an automated machine. Based on the number of pins used or the type of bowling ball used, different countries have different variants of the game. In this game, the players try to score points by knocking down as many pins as possible using the bowling ball. The players need to hold the ball using the three finger drills on the ball. Based on the number of pins knocked out, the player gets points. At the end of ten rounds, the player who scores maximum points becomes the winner. A Little History of Bowling The origin of bowling games is still obscure. British Anthropologists have discovered bowling balls in Egyptian graves dating around 3200 BC. Some historians also claim that it was originated in Germany in around 300 A.D. The first written reference of the game signals to 1366. King Edward III of England banned this game so that the troops concentrate more on archery practice. A place in Southampton, England claims to be the oldest bowling lawn since 1299 which is still in operation. Nine-pin bowling was introduced to United States by the Europeans during the colonial era. Later on, it became very popular and is also THANKS FOR READING – VISIT OUR WEBSITE www.educatererindia.com COMPILED BY : - GAUTAM SINGH STUDY MATERIAL – SPORTS 0 7830294949 called Bowl on the green.
