In July 2005 and again in July 2008, our very own Chuck Gardner was named one of the 100 Top Bowling Coaches by Bowlers Journal International. Being included on such a list is an extreme honor for him, as he is so passionate about this game.

A great bowling coach can bring shy children out of their shells and help transform recreational bowlers into bowling athletes. At the highest of levels of the game, elite bowling coaches can help their students win medals in international competition and prestigious titles on the professional Tours.

From May of 2001 through October of 2006, Chuck served as the Director of Coaching and Tour Support with Columbia Industries. In this position, he hosted coaching clinics all over the United States, Canada & Europe. During the PBA National Tour season, he traveled with the PBA Tour providing both coaching and technical support to the PBA players on staff with Columbia, Track & AMF.

Chuck now hosts coaching clinics for Pro Shops and Bowling Centers as well as consumers in his position with Brunswick. You will find the Cities and Dates listed on this page. This will give you the opportunity to attend one in your area.

If your bowling center or pro shop does not have a clinic scheduled, please ask them to contact Chuck and he will be happy to provide the them with the details to get one scheduled. You may use the “Ask the Pro” section of this web-site for this purpose.

If you would like to schedule a clinic at your home center for a group (any location) or a personalized lesson in the Rock Hill, SC, Columbia, SC, Charlotte, NC or Port St Lucie areas, please feel free to e-mail us via the “Ask the Pro” section of this website
