Year 7 & 8 bowling program
Tenpin Bowling Australia in partnership with the Australian Sports Commission are thrilled to offer students in Year 7 and Year 8 a new Tenpin Bowling program offering for Sporting Schools.
The national program offers an excellent introduction to students and teachers learning Tenpin Bowling for the first time and provides an extension for schools already familiar with the sport.
Flexibility is given to all schools on where they can complete the program; with Bowling Centres right across Australia, schools have the option to complete the program in centre, and for those schools not within striking distance, there are in-school resources to be able to teach Tenpin Bowling in a fun and positive environment.
In-Centre Experience
As part of the Tenpin Bowling Australia Sporting Schools Program, your school can make the journey to the Bowl and experience the sport at your local centre!
Experience games with your class or school over 2x90 minute sessions at a bowling centre or add in a session at a bowling centre after your Roll ‘n Strike or Year 7 & 8 program, it’s up to you!
