Why I Love My Bowling League

Author: Isiah Williams

My husband and I met during a bowling league when we were both in college, but haven't played much in the years since. Recently, he brought home a flier from the local bowling alley advertising adult bowling leagues, so we decided to give it a go. We have meets twice a week, and have been loving the competition and the opportunity to meet new people.

After he and I both get home from work on the nights when we have a meet, we'll eat a quick dinner before getting ready to head out. He usually packs together our equipment with our balls and shoes, while I clean up the dishes. Then, we set the home security alarm (Alarm Systems packages) and get in the car to head to the alley.

Once we're there, we find our friends from the league and figure out who our competition for the evening will be. There are some pretty great teams out there and our team certainly isn't at the top of the list, but we're definitely within the top five teams. One of the best parts of the whole experience has been getting to know other couples, but also getting to work with people and learn from them. Many of the people have bowled for years, and have been able to work with us to get our games back in shape.
