Bowling (also known as tenpins) is a game where players roll a heavy ball down a narrow lane toward a group of pins. The object of the game is to knock down more pins than your opponent.
In America, it’s common for a group of friends to go bowling for fun. You can also join a local league or the Professional Bowlers Association, which has tiers for bowlers at all levels.
