League Play: The Mental Game | USBC Bowling Academy

In league play, it’s as important to focus on the mental side of the game as the physical. There are distractions from loud noises, cheering and movement all around you, but USBC Hall of Famer Carolyn Dorin-Ballard says it’s up to you to mentally block out everything except for the shot ahead of you when you step up on the approach. Your teammates are relying on you, so take a deep breath, visualize your shot, and execute.
