The sixth Member Congress of Jiangsu Bowling Association: Build a new chapter of bowling
On March 28, with the successful conclusion of the sixth Member Congress of the Jiangsu Bowling Association, the new leadership team was formally elected, which injected new vitality into the development of bowling in Jiangsu. This conference is not only a grand event for a new election, but also a starting point for promoting bowling to a new stage.
At this conference,Qin Zhiqiang, Chairman of Flying, relied on his rich experience in bowling and outstanding leadership skills, to be elected as vice president of the Jiangsu Bowling Association. The election of Comrade Qin Zhiqiang is not only a reflection of his personal honor, but also an affirmation of the Flying Company's long-term contribution to the development of bowling.

As the new vice president, Mr. Qin Zhiqiang said that he will actively perform his duties and promote the popularization and improvement of bowling in Jiangsu Province and even the country. Therefore, he plans to promote the development of bowling in many aspects.
Mr. Qin Zhiqiang intends to enhance the promotion of bowling to raise public awareness and participation. He aims to attract a larger number of individuals to engage in bowling and experience the joy of sports through organizing diverse bowling events and activities.
Furthermore, Mr. Qin Zhiqiang also expressed his commitment to further developing bowling by addressing its cost-related aspects. He firmly believes that only by reducing the expenses associated with participating in bowling can more people be afforded the opportunity to engage with this sport.
Consequently, he plans on exploring effective strategies for minimizing costs related to equipment, venue rental, etc., thereby making bowling more accessible for all individuals. This is an ongoing endeavor undertaken by Flying.
Flying Bowling has been actively exploring strategies to reduce the operational and maintenance costs of bowling alleys, and has successfully introduced a range of innovative bowling equipment into the market.
With the introduction of Flying's string bowling machine, bowling alley operators now have a better option that offers numerous advantages, including high efficiency, energy conservation, and low maintenance requirements.
Besides significantly reducing investment and labor expenses for its clients, Flying also plays an active role in promoting the advancement of bowling.

Under the leadership of President Qin Zhiqiang, new vitality and impetus will surely be injected into the development of bowling in Jiangsu by the new leadership of the Jiangsu Bowling Association.
We hope that bowling will shine more brightly in Jiangsu Province, even throughout the whole country, and become a part of people's health under the promotion of President Qin Zhiqiang. At the same time, we also expect more socials to join in bowling to jointly promote the prosperity and progress of this sport.

How many lanes does it take to open a bowling alley?
There's no strict rule on the number of lanes required to open a bowling alley. It depends on your business goals and target market.
Here's a breakdown to help you decide:
- Small niche alleys: Some bowling alleys might focus on a specific audience, like a boutique bowling alley with just a few lanes catering to a high-end clientele. They might have other revenue streams besides just bowling, like a fancy restaurant or bar.
- Traditional bowling alleys: These typically have many lanes, often around 8 to 24 lanes , to accommodate a larger number of bowlers and maximize revenue through lane rentals.
- Mini bowling: Certain alleys might offer mini bowling, which uses lighter balls and shorter lanes. This could be a good option for a family entertainment center and wouldn't require a large number of standard lanes.
Ultimately, the number of lanes is a business decision based on your target market, budget, and the overall experience you want to create.
How a bowling ball return machine works?
A bowling ball return system uses a combination of gravity, belts, and sometimes lifts to bring your ball back to you after your roll. Here's a breakdown of the typical process:
-
Ball Exit: After rolling down the lane, the ball exits into a channel at the end. This channel might have a slight incline to help guide the ball towards the return mechanism.
-
Transfer Tray: The ball rolls into a shallow tray or trough. This tray might have a diverter at the end to ensure balls from adjacent lanes don't collide.
-
Elevator or Incline (optional): In some setups, the ball might be lifted to a higher level before entering the return system. This creates a steeper decline for the ball to travel down, helping it gain momentum.
-
Belt Conveyor: The ball reaches a conveyor belt with a textured surface to prevent slipping. This belt carries the ball up an incline.
-
Gravity Channel: Once at the top of the incline, the ball is released onto a long, U-shaped channel. Gravity takes over, pulling the ball down through the channel.
-
Ball Deflector: At the end of the channel, there might be a deflector that diverts the ball slightly towards your lane. This ensures the ball ends up in the correct return slot.
-
Ball Return Tray: The ball finally reaches a tray or cradle positioned in front of your lane, ready for your next roll.
Here are some additional points to note:
- Modern systems might have sensors to detect the presence of a ball and activate the return mechanism accordingly.
- Some higher-end systems use quieter materials and designs to minimize noise during ball return.
Bowling Equipment
What basic equipment is needed for bowling?
Bowling needs lots of equipment, but the most important parts are the fairway boards and the string pinsetter equipment.
Who makes new bowling equipment?
Flying specializes in manufacturing brand new bowling equipment. All the equipment, fairway boards, balls, and pins we provide are brand new. Including the scoring and management systems of our bowling lanes, they are all unique and developed by ourselves.
Who buys used bowling equipment?
Usually, many of our Indian customers buy second-hand equipment because the price is relatively low. But in the end, they learned that Flying's prices were extremely competitive and the equipment was brand new and of very high quality. So finally, they chose to cooperate with Flying to purchase bowling equipment.
How to maintain the mechanical equipment of a bowling alley?
Fairway boards and equipment require regular maintenance. Fairway boards need to be oiled every half month and cleaned daily to extend their service life. At the same time, the condition of the rope and ball return machine needs to be checked every period of time to ensure the normal operation of the equipment. Specifically, we will give you detailed maintenance manuals and videos to teach you how to maintain.
Price
How much does it cost to build a 2 lane home bowling alley?
Building a 2-lane bowling alley in your home can be a fun and luxurious addition, but it comes with a significant cost. Here's a breakdown of what to expect:
Price range: Expect a ballpark figure of $120,000 to $195,000 [US dollars] for two lanes of traditional ten-pin bowling. This includes lane equipment, installation, and basic functionality for a home setting.
Variations: This cost can be highly influenced by your desired features and customizations. Here are some factors that can push the price higher:
Upgraded equipment: Automatic scoring systems, lane lighting systems, or high-performance lane surfaces will all add to the cost.
Construction considerations: The cost of preparing the space in your home might vary depending on the existing structures, plumbing, and electrical work needed.
