A bowling center is a facility designed for the sport of bowling, where individuals or teams roll a heavy ball down a lane to knock down pins. These centers typically feature multiple lanes, often equipped with automatic scoring systems, and may also offer rental shoes and bowling balls for guests. In addition to bowling lanes, many bowling centers provide amenities such as arcade games, food and beverage services, and event spaces for parties or tournaments. Some centers host leagues and special events, making them popular destinations for both casual players and competitive bowlers.
