Youth Bowling Council

In 1963, a program named the Youth Bowling Council was organized for young bowlers under the age of 19 as of Dec 31st.

The AIM was to provide an interesting program that would encourage more youngsters to participate in the various games of bowling. A series of tournaments and championships was arranged that would be both interesting and a challenge to all youth bowlers, regardless of their skill levels. This has now evolved into a program that encourages adult bowlers to take a greater interest in youth bowlers.

THE YBC and its programs are administered by the Bowling Proprietor's Association of Canada and, each year, enlists the aid of over 6,000 parents and adults to voluntarily coach, supervise, and instruct young bowlers.
