Where do you see bowling 10 years from now?
« on: September 20, 2009, 08:40:28 AM »
A brunswick zone just closed recently in our area, and all centers seem to be struggling as open play and leagues continue to shrink.  Though it may be hard to be optimistic in this economic climate, does anyone see a light at the end of this tunnel?

I completely agree with the "GREED" comments, this has crippled too many alleys in Hawaii it's ridiculous.  Bowling used to be big time sports event out here and now only limited to 2-3 private alleys, the rest still standing are located on the military bases.  

Back to where I see bowling in 10 years though, I see with the changes USBC are pursuing and the goals they have set for the future, it will continue to be a strong sport for all and will be a sport in the Olympics.  One thing I think the sport is lacking is big time sponsorships putting the money in that is necessary to compete with sports like golf, tennis and poker.
