Is there any 8-or 9-pin bowling (less than 10)? seriously...just asking... - dunno bowling

10 pin bowling? whats that? can u please explain... sorry...

ummm it's that game people play where you throw a big heavy ball with 3 holes in it (for your fingers) down an alley to hit a bunch of pins (they look kinda like milk bottles)

Sound familiar?

It's commonly known as 'bowling' here in KSA

There have been some recent conversations about organizing an event.

I know 3 places:
1- Universal Bowling Center (UBC) --- Mather Street
2- Marina Mall --- Olaya Street
3- First Bowling --- Thumama Street I guess

None close to Granda Mall.

Intercontinental Hotel have 12 lanes

Any rates and description of number of lanes available to go along with that info, TLL?

Hi Popolocroix,

The rate at intercon bowling center is SR17 during week days (sun to wed) & SR 25 during week end (Thu to sat).

Yes, as 2Mounir said, 17 or 25 SAR (per pax).

Max 4 players to team with, one stretch of game of 8/9 rotations...(I recall) 3 throws each.

PAY FOR 2 FRAMES AND GET 1 FRAME FREE (3 FRAMES FOR JUST SR. 50/-)

Everyone now more, more and more bowling.

In Marina mall,  it's 25  per person per game!   and they got six lanes.  usually bachelors could play on all six lanes but if   there are some  girls/ familIies and they  wanted to play,  they just pull the divider and the other three lanes are for families.
