A professional bowling ball for Terry who is on the bowling team
Posted Feb 14, 2024
Another amazingly generous supporter is underwriting the cost of all of the longest-waiting wishes, so this wish is just $25 – today only! *** Last year, Terry started bowling in a youth league and it was a great experience for him. He learned so much about teamwork, social skills, and perseverance. Plus, he also developed some impressive gross motor and fine motor skills! This year, he's continuing with the youth league and has even joined his high school's bowling team. It's such an awesome opportunity for him to hang out with and learn from his peers. One thing, though - Terry has outgrown his equipment. His ball is too light and not the right type for him to take his skills to the next level. He really needs a new bowling ball that will help him compete with his high school peers and eventually join adult community leagues. The cool thing about bowling is that the scoring system takes into account each player's abilities, so everyone can feel included and valued. Even when Terry was only scoring in the 50s, his teammates still encouraged him and appreciated him being there. Now he's averaging over 100, and he's ready to step up his game with some new equipment. Terry's older foster brother, who also has an intellectual disability, has made lifelong friends playing in community leagues. And Terry is well on his way to doing the same! His social confidence is growing along with his athletic skills, and having the right equipment will help him for years to come.
