NEW VIDEOS FOR EBF COACHING PROGRAMS

The EBF Educational Committee recently gathered in Ingelheim, Frankfurt - Germany, to produce new instructional videos for our coaching programs. Our aim was to modernize our content to meet the current standards of bowling techniques. We're dedicated to ensuring our educational material caters equally well to both one-handed and two-handed bowling styles. Consequently, the Committee decided to update all videos to reflect these changes, providing our coaches with enhanced training resources.

Led by our co-chair, Piritta Kantola, the team, including EBF EC Committee members Costas Mitsingas, Onder Gurkan, and Sven Sager, filmed the necessary content in Ingelheim.

Our heartfelt gratitude extends to the immensely talented individuals who supported our team during the shoots. They are (in alphabetical order):

• Carl Eklund, Sweden

• Ema Iwazawa, Czech Republic

• Martina Schuetz, Germany

• Pascal Winternheimer, Germany

• Zuzka Kvasnickova, Czech Republic

A special acknowledgment is owed to Iga Ryngwelska from Poland, who provided us with Specto GO and invaluable assistance throughout the filming process.

The team at Star Bowling in Ingelheim generously opened their doors to us, providing everything essential for these extensive three days. Their exceptional support merits an additional special thanks.

This collaborative effort showcases the European Bowling Community's unity and dedication to the future of our sport. We wish to thank the EBF for granting us this opportunity, as well as all the participants and their parents who contributed their time and effort, making every moment of this project meaningful.

The initial phase of these updates is expected to be completed by the end of January, coinciding with the iCoach programs. After that, we'll quickly share these updates with our instructors and coaches according to a schedule that's been set.
