Competitive bowling is still alive and in some areas it's even thriving thanks to a strong youth movement. However, I believe the writing is on the wall, and unless things change soon and significantly, the situation seems close to escalating to DEFCON 1.
This isn't hype and hysteria, this isn't an overreaction, and it's not being sensational for clicks, it's an eventuality of things that were set in motion decades ago that aren't being addressed or corrected, and the proof is everywhere you look. USBC membership has nearly fallen under a million, centers are closing everywhere, string pins have been certified and are becoming prevalent, and the powers that be seem to continue to look to their own interests above all else.
Tonight I'm going to talk about what's wrong, who's to blame, and what needs to happen for bowling to rise once again. Sure, it might seem like beating the horse, but unless things change, there won't be a horse left to beat. Bowling needs care, effort, and attention to turn things around. You can't cure cancer unless you properly diagnose it and take it as seriously as it needs to be taken. You can put on a brave face and be positive . . as you're also seeing your doctor and going to treatments.
