Bowling is one of the highest participation sports in Special
Olympics Canada, and with over 2,100 registered
athletes, 5-pin bowling is by far the highest participation sport
in Special Olympics BC. Although there are some modifications made
for athletes with physical disabilities, most athletes compete
under the same rules and circumstances as those on a professional
tour.
As in all Special Olympics sports, athletes are grouped in
competition divisions according to ability level, age, and
gender.
