Katie Holmes and Suri do it. Delta Goodrem and Nick Jonas do it. Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson do it . The whole bunch of Beckhams do it. Angelina and her brood do it, and the whole Kardashian family have been caught doing it. But all of them hope nobody sees them doing it... Every one of them has ended up in the gutter some time - but we don't mean they've fallen over in the street. 

No Score - Just Blushes!

Even the most famous celebs have had at least one bad throw - because bowling is a great leveller. Whether they came to the local bowling centre in a limo, hugging an Armani bag and tip-toeing in on designer heels, they're just like you and me - you take your eye off the pins and bam! the ball goes sliding off the lane into the gutter. No score - just blushes!  Oh the pain as what you thought was a perfectly centred throw skews left or right into the waiting gutter faster than Sarah Jessica Parker can say, " Manolo Blahnik".

We Can Coach You

No-one likes to mess up a throw  - but you don't have to face this alone! We can help. We can arrange a coaching session for you. There are tricks and techniques that are really quick to learn so that the dreaded gutter ball becomes a thing of the past. Where you place your feet and how you release the ball make all the difference.   

"I Fail...And That Is Why I Succeed"

Whether you are young or old, a global celebrity or just your average everyday kinda bowler, everyone wants to stay clear of the gutter. But hey, you're in good company. Like basketball legend Michael Jordan said, "I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed." So who cares if you end up in the gutter, as long as you're taking aim and you keep throwing the ball.
 
Practice, practice, practice - and have a load of fun while you are getting better and better.  So, next time you take your eye off the ball and it goes trundling into the gutter, just remember you are in good company.  You could even say 'award-winning' company!
