Bowling is a sport, and like all sports there are some common rules of etiquette to follow. These bowling rules of etiquette are simple and easy to understand, and by following them the game will be more enjoyable for everyone.
One of the main points of etiquette is determining who bowls first, you or the person in the lane next to you. Generally, if both players in the lanes are ready to bowl at the same time, then the player in the right lane will bowl first. Be aware of your surroundings, make eye contact with the other bowlers, and respecting their game will also help.

Once a player is lined up in their stance and ready to bowl, then that player should bowl. Players should not retrace their steps once they are set to roll the ball. Bowlers should also bowl as efficiently as possible, and not linger in the lane. Although bowlers should not rush into their stance, approach and delivery, they should take the least amount of time to get into a stance and delivery the ball. If players take their turns in a timely fashion, then the game will move quickly, and other bowlers can avoid the annoyance of waiting long periods of time between turns and will get the same courtesy in return.
Bowling rules of etiquette also dictate that you remain behind your fellow bowlers while they are bowling. Bowling should also be confined to the specific lane assigned to players; it is not proper to bowl in other player's lanes. Bowlers should also be considerate of other bowlers and their teammates, as well as player in the lanes on either side of them.
The foul line should be observed, even in casual play, and player should always work to play fair. Good sportsmanship is a rule of thumb for many sports, and bowling is not an exception. Poor sportsmanship is frowned upon in the game of bowling. Showing good sportsmanship involves, taking your proper turn and respecting team member's turns, using the same ball throughout the game, waiting for bowlers in the adjacent lanes to finish before taking your turn, and keeping score in a fair manner.
In bowling, it is not good etiquette to use another player's ball, or towel without permission. Other ways to practice good bowling etiquette include staying in the approach area and stepping back from the approach area after making the delivery. Remain seated until it is their turn to bowl, and to wait until the pin-setter has completed its cycle before rolling the ball. Controlling oneself during the game is also a rule of etiquette in bowling. It is not proper for a bowler to lose their temper, or swearing consistently throughout the game. Fighting is also strictly prohibited during a bowling match, and any belligerent bowlers must be removed and disqualified from the game.
Refreshments and any other paraphernalia should be left out of the pit area. Players may also find it suitable to sit in sequence of their turns, which will make the game go more smoothly. Bowling shoes are provided for each bowler, and players should never play in street shoes. The shoes provided to the bowlers are specialized for the surface of the lanes, and street shoes will only cling to the floor, and playing the game will be very difficult. The bowling rules of etiquette for the game of bowling are simple to understand and all players should know them before bowling. Proper etiquette is key component in the game of bowling, and can be used to help players and those around them enjoy the game.
