How to Recognize Faults in Bowling

Bowling lanes are set up to be very simple and self-governing. Legally, there are a few things you aren't allowed to do. Try to hold yourself accountable for these faults.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Bowling Shoes
• Bowling Ball Towels
• Bowling Balls
• Bowling balls

1. Allow no part of your body to cross the foul line when you're delivering the ball. This is the most common fault.

2. Avoid touching any other item of the lane equipment when delivering your ball other than the ball itself.

3. Credit no pinfall if the ball bounces back out of the gutter.

4. Credit pinfall caused only by the ball. No other item may be used to knock over pins, nor should accidental pinfalls be counted.

5. Bowl only when it's your turn.
