Special Olympics Bowling in Georgia Area 7 Sports

In addition to being fun, inclusive and challenging, bowling is actually good exercise. It may even be a sport you can practice when other physical activities are not (medically) advisable. Area 7 of Special Olympics Georgia is ready to get you and your child in on the fun with our athletic training, coaching and participation in bowling games and events.

Bowling for Fun and Physical Fitness

Ten-pin bowling, commonly called “bowling” in the US, is a competitive sport in which a player (the bowler) rolls a bowling ball down a wooden or synthetic lane with the objective of scoring points by knocking down as many pins as possible.

Although bowling does not belong to the Olympic sports, it is among the most popular sports in Special Olympics. It is a particularly beneficial sport to people with intellectual disabilities, irrespective of their age or sports abilities since it ensures physical exercise and at the same time, participation and social integration. Plus, it’s great fun!
