At our recent BOWLinks event on 5th August, students and adults from various associations such as APSN Katong School, WEDC MINDS and the Handicap Welfare association gathered together at National Service Resort and Country Club to participate in the bi-monthly challenge.
“The students always look forward to coming here to bowl” said Mrs. Rani a teacher at The Association for Persons with Special Needs. This event helps the students to understand and realize the importance of good sportsmanship as well as allowing them to have fun outside school.

“This helps them to boost their confidence and also motivates the other students that are plenty of ways to excel not just academically” shared Mrs. Rani.
Through the charity events, students and adults get to interact with society. By mingling with the staff and volunteers, students are able to get exposure to the world around them and it helps build their morale and interpersonal skills.
After the 3 game series, SingaporeBowling had the honor of having Ms Michelle Tan, president of Bowling Association for the Disabled to help give away the prizes.
The second runner-up went to students from WEDC MINDS and first runner-up went to bowlers from APSN Katong School. Last but not least, the champion title went to bowlers from the Handicap Welfare association who had a total of 1257 pinfalls.
The next round of BOWLinks Bi-monthly challenge will take place in October 2010. Stay tune for more updates!
