Duckpin’s Rich History
With origins dating back to the 1890s, duckpin has a long history. While there is a huge competitive community of duckpin bowlers, the sport is gaining steam among casual bowlers as well. Why? Largely because duckpin lanes are much more accessible for venues with minimal space to work with. From corporate HQ to breweries, and hotels to bars, duckpin is a great way to bring people together at venues not typically known to offer bowling. With smaller everything (lanes, balls, pins, etc.) duckpin might be just the right size for your business.

Whatever your space, adding duckpin bowling is a great way to “wow” your customers and have them leave with a unique and memorable experience.
