Everyone gets to play. That should be the theme put forth over and over again whenever discussions of the merits of youth bowling enters any conversation. It is one of bowling's greatest assets and advantage over other sports. Talk shows devote hours to the subject of how to come up with ways to guarantee that every youngster gets to play. There are all kinds of special rules in youth baseball, football, basketball, soccer and other sports aimed at solving the problem. In some baseball and softball leagues up to 15 kids are allowed to come to bat whether they are in the lineup or not. In various youth sports there are mandates that insure that every kid gets his playing minute minimum. Getting to play is the problem for the young players, their parents, the coaches, and the sports. It also has been proposed in some areas that no score be kept, and the end of winning and losing. How silly can you get? In sports and in life there are winners and losers, and win or lose, there is learning. Many sports have invested millions into developing interest in their sport among youngsters. That isn't meant simply to create future stars but also to create players and fans. Bowling is woefully weak in the spending department and too many junior programs and school organization from preschool through college suffer. Bowling can be expensive for youngsters and their families. Young bowlers should not be viewed merely as a possible source of current income, but as the lifeblood of the sport in pumping new life forever and ever. And it is vital for every organization in bowling to fully
recognize that fact of bowling life. Bowling's biggest plus with youngsters is that everyone gets to play, not in a forced way, but in a full participatory status. Junior bowlers can be classed according to average. Leagues can have two, three or more on a team, and there is always room for one more. And they all get to play. And they all get to know how they did as individuals or as team members. Boys learn early that girls can bowl well too, and they don't feel nearly as bad as their elders or their counterparts in other sports when they get bowled over by a female. Another plus for youth bowling is that boys and girls get to know each other better in various competitive as well as social situations. Parents almost dread going to a sporting contest when their children are border players, good enough to play, but not good enough to be a sure thing. Parents of young league bowlers know their youngsters will be in action, no matter how well they shoot, and parents know the kids will be in a classified situation that is either competitive or is aided by a handicap procedure that makes for some semblance of equality, regardless of ability. Bowling is fortunate that it is a sport that can handle differences in age, size or ability in probably the fairest manner of any sport. But bowling should be shouting from the rooftops to youngsters and parents and adults and educators that this is the rarest of sports, the sport everyone gets to play in a meaningful way. Those kids who start bowling at two or three years of age with bumper bowling, can still be bowling decades, and even a century later, and the same will apply, everyone gets to play.
