I Believe in Bowling by Kelsey Fuller

The bowling alley is in complete silence. I'm up to bowl and I have to get a strike to win the tournament. The pressure is on and people are watching which makes it even more difficult. Last frame, last ball, hoping that I can do this. I'm lined up and ready to go ! I'm a very big fan of bowling. I love to do it. It's something that I enjoy. I believe in bowling.

I've been bowling for awhile now and have enjoyed every aspect of it. Students enjoy going out and do this with other friends or family. You get the chance to just play around and not worry about being so competitive either. You actually enjoy the sport there's so many ways to just have fun with bowling. You get to just be yourself, with friends, family and even if you're by yourself doing this. I believe in bowling.

We've been playing a tournament for quite some time now and I'm really starting to get tired. The competition and all is starting to make my brain and arms go numb. Bowling can be competitive and when this happen it's not always good. When I start to do bad I start to get stressed out. But I always find away to get back on the good side and do better just for my team. I like the competition though, it's fun to complete. You get to play other teams and win things. I believe in bowling.

When I started to do bowling I started to learn from it. It teaches you patience. Bowling has taught me patience since I've started bowling. I can wait on things a little better now. Also, another positive lesson from bowling would be like getting along with people you don't know. Learning how to communicate with other peers when going to meets is important. Team work is good for this sport also. Many sports involve teamwork and so does bowling! You're score and your teams score determine if you win that meet or tournament.

So, I'm lined up ready to get this strike. I am very confident in myself. I go to throw the ball, as it's rolling down the lane I'm hoping and praying that it strikes. All of a sudden it makes it there and what do you know, I strike out! I was so happy everybody on the team was happy. We couldn't believe that we won the tournament. Bowling is fun and it does work a lot of muscles in the body. You may think it isn't exercising, but it is for me! It's very fun to do with friends and even with my family. I believe in bowling.
