General Rules Of Courtesy

No more than one bowler should be on your lane at a time; multiple people on the approach can be distracting.

Before bowling, check one lane to your left and right to make sure you do not go before someone who is already on the approach and prepared to bowl.

Respect the other bowlers on the lanes and refrain from yelling, cursing, jumping, or throwing/kicking things.

NEVER, EVER walk on the approach for any other reason than preparing to bowl.  ALWAYS walk to your lane behind the ball return.

Do not bring any food or beverages into the settee area, dropping and food or liquid may get onto someone's bowling shoes which will prohibit them from sliding on the approach.
