Rising 6th graders attending our summer transition programs at Ponus Ridge and West Rocks Middle Schools went to Bowlmor this afternoon to enjoy a fun time together.
Bowling provides many benefits for youth including educational, social, psychological, and health benefits. Bowling is an equal opportunity lifetime sport!
Over 200 colleges offer collegiate bowling, with many of these schools providing scholarship opportunities. The bowling industry generates over $6 million in scholarships each year. Bowling meets the five standards for physical education set by SHAPE America. Bowling promotes learning math skills by calculating scores, figuring averages, and learning mathematical systems to adjust to lane conditions and spare shooting. Advanced bowling incorporates physics and science including understanding friction, ball motion, and biomechanics to name a few.
But ask any of our students and they’ll likely report that they simply had a lot of fun today — which is the secret component of all of Carver’s after-school and summer programming!
