Bowling
Hello ICSD Bowlers and fans.
I always welcome with a warm heart the Bowlers of the world. I have been reminiscing about the 1997 World Games for the Deaf and the 2001 to 2009 Summer Deaflympics. I have experienced and recorded the results from them as well as the 2003 World Deaf Bowling Championships. Thank you to Connie Marchionne. I have learned a lot about Bowling and the world from Connie.
I went to Buenos Aires, Argentina, 14-18 August 2010. I inspected the bowling alleys for the 2011 World Deaf Bowling Championships. The Organizing Committee showed me two different bowling venues. Dragon is in the middle of South of Buenos Aires and Bowling Co. is North of Buenos Aires. Both bowling venue are good places and both includes access to the mall area.
Dragon Bowling, with 20 lanes, was chosen to host the 2011 World Deaf Bowling Championships. The building includes a shopping mall with food outlets and cinemas. It is only 30 min to the centrum (4 hotels). More information can be found at: www.deafbowling2011.com.

The official date for the 2011 World Deaf Bowling Championships is 23 August to 03 September and will follow the Regulations of Deaf World Championships.
