Bowl with the Pros to raise money for our Military Heroes
Don’t have any “good” bowlers working for your company? Don’t worry because we have taken steps to remove individual any “performance anxiety!” First, there is no “individual” scoring. All bowling is a team effort in which individuals contribute frames to the team game (i.e. one person will roll frames 1 & 6, another frames 2 & 7, another 3 & 8, etc.). The winner of the games won’t be determined by the team that roles the most strikes. In fact, the object in one game is to roll the lowest score. And finally, each team will be joined by a PBA50 star who will handle any “pressure” shots for you.
Samples of proposed games:
- Golf 101: Low score wins, with each bowler being required to knock down at least 1 pin per frame. Frames in which at least 1 pin is not knocked down are marked as a strike. The perfect score is 10.
- Yatzee: Teams have 10 frames to collect counts of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10.
- Craps: The team rolling the most “7’s” wins.
- Easy As 1-2-3: Teams attempt to roll a total game score of exactly “123” without going over.
