| Since High School Bowling is just beginning to be recognized as a serious competitive sport in the high schools, there are very few experienced school staff members trained to either instruct or coach bowling.
It is the intent of all high school programs across the country to provide the necessary personnel to the schools to fill this need. Currently certified volunteers from local bowling centers, pro shops and membership organizations are being utilized.
It is recommended that coaches be trained and certified by any of the many programs available throughout the country. Some of the programs include, but are not limited to:
*(USBC recommends but does not have an affiliation with or information about availability of these programs)
It is also highly recommended by USBC High School that additional classes in first aid and courses offered by ASEP be included in every volunteer's training. Eventually all high school coaches will be required to meet the high schools' education standards and these courses, or some variation, will meet those standards.
