Bowling at the 1988 Summer Olympics

The organization hierarchy of the operation included the commissioner, secretary general, one director, two managers and nine officers.

The operation headquarters moved its offices to the Royal Bowling Center (the venue), on June 24.

Carol Gianotti of Australia, a former multiple LPBA Champion, competed but did not win a medal.

As a direct result of the 1983 experience in Caracas, Venezuela, for the first time anywhere, on August 2, 1991, in Havana, Cuba, the tenpin sport earned full "medal status" in an international multisport competition: the eleventh competition of the Pan American Games, at which all the nations of the Americas compete every four years.
