Youth Bowling
YBC, short for Youth Bowling Canada, brings children together through weekly league play! Every Saturday, youngsters are given the opportunity to socialize with peers, participate in a unique sport, and hone skills that improve daily life. In bowling, nobody warms the bench. A handicap system ensures that players at different skill levels can participate equally. Every member of the team is given his or her chance to shine!
As Canada’s largest YBC member site, NEB’s Fun World provides a safe, positive environment where children and parents alike can relax. We strive to improve the program every season, introducing new activities and events for your entertainment. By awarding achievement through Cresting, we encourage youth to work toward a goal until it is reached. Come May, every bowler is invited to our annual banquet for great food, shiny trophies, and special prizes!
