They are 1.5 times bigger than the original bowling pins. When it is bigger and lighter, it would be easier to knock the pins down. 

We also chose to use the foam volleyballs instead of the regular bowling balls because it is lighter in weight and softer. This ensures that they are able to bowl without putting too much physical strain on themselves. 

The use of the bowling ramp helps the chosen profiles to have better control of the release of the ball. They have the option to use this ramp or do it traditionally. ]]> 2021-08-13 03:00:19 UTC https://padlet.com/mdharith0405/c760w7y5symk7qpy/wish/1677663473 mdharith0405 https://padlet.com/mdharith0405/c760w7y5symk7qpy/wish/1677664657 - The pins would be set up the same way as a normal bowling setting but with 6 pins instead of the normal 10.

- The distance between the pins and the participant will be decreased as they have lesser strength to be able to roll the ball.

- The participants are to roll the ball with their hands and not roll the ball in a way where it causes the ball to bounce. That would defeat the purpose of bowling.  ]]> 2021-08-13 03:01:31 UTC https://padlet.com/mdharith0405/c760w7y5symk7qpy/wish/1677664657 mdharith0405 https://padlet.com/mdharith0405/c760w7y5symk7qpy/wish/1677678241 - Normal Bowling rules

- One more try if it is not a strike (e.g. if you knocked down 4 out of the 6 pins, you still have another try to knock the remaining 2 pins, failure to do so would just end your turn and you only get 4 points)

- No bouncing of ball upon release 

- Use of bowling lane bumpers. These lane bumpers keeps the ball in the lane instead of going into the bowling gutter. This makes it easier for them to score points by knocking down the pins. ]]> 2021-08-13 03:14:30 UTC https://padlet.com/mdharith0405/c760w7y5symk7qpy/wish/1677678241 https://padlet.com/mdharith0405/c760w7y5symk7qpy/wish/1677680729 2021-08-13 03:16:52 UTC https://padlet.com/mdharith0405/c760w7y5symk7qpy/wish/1677680729 https://padlet.com/mdharith0405/c760w7y5symk7qpy/wish/1677682810 2021-08-13 03:18:43 UTC https://padlet.com/mdharith0405/c760w7y5symk7qpy/wish/1677682810 mdharith0405 https://padlet.com/mdharith0405/c760w7y5symk7qpy/wish/1677686111 2021-08-13 03:21:40 UTC https://padlet.com/mdharith0405/c760w7y5symk7qpy/wish/1677686111 https://padlet.com/mdharith0405/c760w7y5symk7qpy/wish/1677687828 - The length of the bowling alley is decreased

-If they are interested in this sport, they may want to try real bowling whereby the rules are not changed and using the normal weight bowling ball. This will allow them to improve on the strength of their upper limbs, keep fit and healthy and most importantly, have fun and enjoy playing the sport. ]]> 2021-08-13 03:52:52 UTC https://padlet.com/mdharith0405/c760w7y5symk7qpy/wish/1677719794 https://padlet.com/mdharith0405/c760w7y5symk7qpy/wish/1677811425 We think there is a no need for the ramp as the foam volleyball should not be a problem for the participants to roll or bowl the ball as it is light. Using the ramps may slow the ball down and if its light, it will not have the full potential to knock the pins down.]]> 2021-08-13 05:30:07 UTC https://padlet.com/mdharith0405/c760w7y5symk7qpy/wish/1677811425 https://padlet.com/mdharith0405/c760w7y5symk7qpy/wish/1677818214 The ramp would be counter-productive as using it will make the foam ball go slower as compared to throwing it with hands. Furthermore, it is a foam ball. Hence, with slower speed, the impact will be less significant. Overall, well-presented.

However, if the participants use the ramp, they will not be exercising their upper body motor skills that you guys envisioned in your conclusion. We also are not sure how easily obtainable these ramps are. Are they easily accessible?]]> 2021-08-13 05:43:53 UTC https://padlet.com/mdharith0405/c760w7y5symk7qpy/wish/1677822043 derekxie123 https://padlet.com/mdharith0405/c760w7y5symk7qpy/wish/1677834638 Need to have a more detailed analysis of the targeted audience (can talk about their disabilities and skills they needed for bowling)

You spoke about having ramps and lane bumpers for the game conducted in a sports hall. Can I check if these equipment will be provided for by the sports hall?

Good Consideration to have lane bumpers to increase the fun factor and increase the confidence in the participants.

Will the foam ball be too light to knock down the pin?
