Program History

he BPAA School for Bowling Center Management started in April of 2006 in Arlington, Texas when 26 students from bowling centers throughout the country came together to learn more about running their centers. Since then, the school has had more than 25 gatherings at locations throughout the US and helped over 500 managers and proprietors to run their centers more effectively and efficiently.

Today the school has expanded to offer a variety of courses taught by qualified, professional faculty that are working together to mold the future of bowling center managers. From its humble beginnings, the school has grown to the leader in management training for the bowling industry. An expanded curriculum, increased benefits, and special teaching facility make this program a truly valuable, unique opportunity that can help change the way your center does business for the better.

Flight / Airport Information

The Dallas-Fort Worth Airport is approximately 15 miles from The International Bowling Campus. Since the DFW Airport is a major hub, it offers flights through most airlines and a variety of arrival and departure times and options. Considering its proximity to our facility and the availability of free shuttle service to the host hotel, we urge all students who will fly in for the class to designate the DFW Airport as their final destination.

Lodging

There are several hotels within close proximity of the bowling campus; however, our meeting department has negotiated a bowling center proprietor friendly rate with La Quinta Inn & Suites.  This is not your everyday La Quinta!  This new remodeled location is a favorite of campus regular visitors. This property is located directly across the street from the bowling campus and is within walking distance from the campus and dining options. Students choosing to stay at this hotel can avoid car rental as the hotel offers a free shuttle from the airport and several restaurants nearby.  Due to our special $89 rate, there is not a link to make your reservations. However if you give us your information we will gladly book the rooms for you.   

If you choose to book your own room(s) you can call 866-527-1498 (Option 5 for the front desk) and mention you are with the BPAA Traditional Management School or give them the Reservation block #6925528 to secure the rate.
