Where to learn bowling?

[bbqueen]

Hi! I have started playing bowling for 3 months. I would like to improve my game as soon as possible Is there any bowling academy/school in Europe? Or maybe a summer camp? Thanks for advise

I'm certainly no expert about bowling in Europe but I would imagine the owner of your local bowling center and or the Pro shop manager could steer you in the right direction. They usually know all the local coaches and would probably know of any camps or schools in your area. Welcome to the sport. I'm sure you will find it an enjoyable game you can play for a lifetime.

I'm certain there must be; you need to check with your local bowling association. I'm sure they can direct you to coaches and seminars in your area. There are many great bowlers in Europe, you could even try contacting them. Also keep your eyes open for ball company seminars that take place from time to time.

Now, that's sound advice from both GeorgiaStroker and Kev3inp.

Thanks for your answers. Unfortunatley I live in small town in Poland. We have a nice and modern bowling center, but no coaches here.

See if you can take a trip to Chicago, there's a huge Polish community there. Look for WTBA tournaments in cities in Europe. A trip to one could pay off in instruction. There are on-line lessons available here in the states, someone must be doing it in Poland. Shall I try out my limited Polish on you? The spelling is probably very wrong, but, "Zhin dobre." and "Niema Schlitza, niema piwa."

www.mybowlingcoach.com has very good instructional video lessons. One of their coaches is Ron Hatfield who happens to be a European team coach. I don't remember which country right now, sorry.

I HOPE THIS WILL HELP YOU

[GeorgiaStroker]

At the very least look for the best bowlers in your area and ask them for some help. Most bowlers are happy to help out especially if you start out with " you're such a great bowler, could you give me some pointers"? Of course you want to pick out a bowler who has a similar style to you or a style you want to emulate.
