Top women players are showing their skills at the World Tenpin Bowling Championships at Hong Kong Bowling City in Kowloon Bay. The tournament is held every two years, and this year's event runs until Sunday. The organising committee arranged a master class for the city's youngsters in the run-up to the tournament. World champions Shannon O'Keefe and Stefanie Nation joined other players from Team USA to instruct the sport's young local hopefuls.
Students from CCC Mong Man Wai College were among the group who attended the clinic last Tuesday.
Many of them started systematic training in the sport only this summer. Yet all the students were keen to hear O'Keefe's expert advice.
The school's team was made up of five Form Four students: Wayne Cheung Wai-chuen, Falcon Wong Kam-hei, Issac Leung Yi, Chloe Lee Wing-yan and Debby Wong Tsz-ming.
They had much to learn from O'Keefe, the 2007 world champion in the women's singles.
'I am now more confident of playing on the lane,' said Chloe, the school team's captain, following the practice session.
