bowling average
A bowling average indicates a bowler’s performance by measuring how many pins they typically knock down per game. It’s calculated by dividing the total number of pins the bowler has knocked down by the number of games played. For example, if a player scores a total of 2,000 pins over 50 games, their average is 40 pins per game. A lower average generally signifies better skill, as the bowler consistently knocks down more pins. It provides a quick way to assess a bowler's consistency and overall performance over time.
