Portable Skittle Alley Hire Information

Whats Included with Skittle Alley Hire

 Each skittle alley comes with 9 wooden skittle pins and 3 bowling balls. The skittle alleys incorporate one fixed side and a ball return gulley on the opposite side, together with a catch box and foam back cushion. This enables the balls to be returned safely and reduces the volume of noise whilst bowling.  

We can also supply risk assessments( where requested), scoresheets, skittle rules and operating instructions, fundraising information (where relevant) and a bowling demonstration. 

We offer two sizes of bowling alley at 21ft and 27ft  and our skittle alleys can be used by persons of all ages( from 4 upwards) and abilities, including disabled and special needs. We recommend, ideally, a maximum of 30/40 persons bowling per skittle alley. Where the numbers of bowlers exceeds this number we recommend an additional alley/s. If this is not possible( ie due to lack of space) we can still supply a single alley but the participants will have fewer turns.

The object of skittles is very similar to ten pin bowling. The skittles are placed on the last section of the skittles alley, where marked, and each player has two or three attempts to knock as many skittles down as possible. We supply three bowling balls, but two can be used if prefered. Skittles can be played individually or in teams.
