Hello i am a bowler that has been in the game for about 2 1/2 years but have really searched and learned a lot about the game an i seen you had a question on ball drillings and i just wanted to know is that degree that you say that the college in IN. is that part of the college or bowling alley and how often do the clinics come around.

Answer
My degree is from Vincennes University in Vincennes Indiana.  It is a 2 year degree course that covers bowling center management of which pro shop management is included.
Ebonite and IBPSIA offer pro shop training courses ranging from basic to advanced.  You can contact them for more information via their websites.
