Basketball Bowling
Mirabile, Chris; Cooper, Michael; Petrie, Heather

Basketball bowling was developed after students in the authors' physical education class participated in a bowling unit sponsored through Bowl America. Basketball bowling is a lead-up activity for elementary-age students that incorporates basic skills from basketball and bowling. The general object of this activity is to be the first team to roll down the bowling pin with a basketball. Once the pin is knocked down, that team then has the opportunity to score points for the team by shooting the basketball into the basketball hoop. This article will describe the activity and provide sample modifications that other physical educators can use. (Contains 1 figure and 1 table.)
