The main company risks

business Urgency

Bowling is one of the most accessible and popular types of active entertainment in the capital.

The reasons for the popularity of bowling:

1. Availability of opportunities to play for each. The game does not require any special skills, expensive equipment and long preliminary training. Features are learned during the development of well-aimed shots at the pins.
2. clear rules.
3. A good workout all muscle groups. Besides, train accuracy, eye and dexterity.
4. Chances are good and have fun with your friends.

Bowling - a sufficiently extreme and safe entertainment for a broad target audience. This is an additional opportunity to socialize and compete with friends in a pleasant atmosphere. In these clubs, you can easily significantly expand the circle of contacts, including at the expense of advanced interactive technologies. All the rules and game consoles, and management as simple and understandable.

According to experts, Market bowling clubs today is undergoing a number of changes and is in a state of stagnation: many clubs bowling sports orientation ceased to exist in Europe, and in Russia. Becomes less sensitive sports clubs - are replaced by hybrid institutions - bowling boutiques and entertainment venues. After the renovation of institutions, their income has increased several times. So, furniture was purchased, indoor celebrations have been held, corporate parties and birthdays. In this case, in addition to bowling the hosts offer guests a number of other active entertainment.

In the United States Bowling firmly entrenched in the top ten of the most popular forms of sports entertainment. Student bowling segment developed very well - so, parents think through in advance the future of their child, when it is given in the section of sports of bowling - in children, which showed the highest results during training, It has a chance to get a grant to receive free higher education in selected higher education institution from the list of proposed.

In such European countries as Britain, Germany and some Scandinavian countries, Bowling is included in the compulsory program of school as one of the sports disciplines.

types of bowling

main (classic) Game types bowling

• Bowling five pin. Different number of pins, the value of the throw and the amount of.
• Kendlpin bowling, it uses a certain type of pins, shaped like a candle.
• Dakpin bowling, where the shape resembles a duck pins. This form of pins gives it greater stability, it is more difficult to knock off 1 blow. Balls in this form of bowling used a little more light, than usual.
• road bowling, in which the two participants compete. They both ride the same color ball. He gets the win, who shot down the larger number of pins in fewer shots.
• bowling 10 kegley. The most popular form of the game, in which the pins are set in the form of an equilateral triangle. Weight of the ball in a game can be up to 7 kilograms, track – length 18 m. The maximum score for one player - all 10 pinfall at a time.

Necessarily the presence point of catering - it is important to, to food court area was opened directly by the owner of business - inviting subtenants in such a case is extremely risky. If such points are previously brought to 50% revenue, today they account for up to 70% profits from the total amount.

standard margin can be up 200%, and opening a small point of food and beverage (food and drink) It will mean getting more good profit - after active games played good appetite. It is possible to prohibit bringing drinks and sandwiches with a. food court format will depend not only on the concept of the bowling club, but also on the amount of funds invested by businessman - this can be a standard fast food with french fries and hamburgers, but can - a complete plant with hot and cold. Since the target audience bowling clubs - people from 25 to 45 years old, who are able to provide for themselves, We need to consider the availability of such parts, as a playroom for children. Its content can be very different - from soft labyrinths and a trampoline park format "mini" to the hammocks with free Wi-Fi and good internet, where teenagers can hang, who are tired of chasing balls. For, the club had the potential to expand, kindly requested to lease an area of ​​not less than 500 square meters.

According to experts, previously been popular places to the number of lanes from six to twelve. Today, the concept of business changes, and it is possible to remove the bowling club room for accommodation 2-6 tracks. Proceeds will increase the number of other forms of entertainment - to this type of business should be approached comprehensively today.

Changed the preferences of the target audience of clubs: if earlier bowling was considered extremely active type of activities, today you need to offer greatly expanded range of services, which should include a catering area and the opportunity to play on the machines.

Choosing bowling concept

Generally, experts are several general concepts bowling clubs.

1. Family institutions.
2. Clubs for professional athletes.
3. Institution for youth.
4. Bowling club with bar elements, restaurant, cafes, etc..

The most difficult part in this kind of business is to secure high-quality equipment and the selection of premises for the start. The main criterion for selection of the required space is considered to be its value and the absence of a number of direct and indirect competitors. Another desirable location near buildings, convenient transportation and proximity to subway stations.

Selection of premises

For the most favorable place all the necessary elements of the club will need room for at least 500 square meters, Some experts put the figure 800 premises square meters. Most often, to accommodate a bowling club business absorb the last floors of large shopping centers, however, there is need to pay substantial rent amount. Cheaper and more convenient option for beginners in business, you can call the premises of the former cinema, palaces of culture,

Primary requirements, you need to study and which are generally imposed by Roskomnadzor and SES premises for such purpose, We set out here:

1. Basic Documentation for the opening activities
2. On approval of the Guidelines on the application of the Russian Federation budget classification
3. Federal-Law-on-08.08.2001-N-129 FZ-red.-of-31.12.2017
4. Federal-Law-on-04.05.2011-N-99-FZ-red.-of-31.12.2017
5. Federal Law of 03.07.2016 N 290-FZ (row. from 27.11.2017

among the features, which should be considered when renting / building space to accommodate a bowling center, are the following: Zone placement customers must withstand a load of not less than three hundred kilograms 1 square meter, basic equipment layout area must support the weight ot500 kg / square meter of premises. Bearing structures must be located at a great distance from each other. Especially important is this detail to accommodate the area directly tracks for the game. For, to serve 2-6 tracks, It requires the same number of employees. With the increase in the number of tracks you can install additional interactive console, that will govern the customer to change lanes and avoid so their downtime or uneven filling. Important! Pair number of tracks served by a single console, therefore, to establish a number of tracks will be cheaper.

experts note, that the greater the number of tracks in the club, the faster the business goes to the breakeven level and begins to make a profit. Besides, an increased number of tracks significantly reduces the cost of each of them.

For additional income, As we have already mentioned above, It can be equipped with a video game for children / adolescents and accommodate special track for children's / teen games. The main income of the club brings load game tracks customers. It is determined by the simplified formula: the average number of hours per day loading track. The most profitable time at the club is considered to be the night, Friday, and weekends. At this time, you can significantly increase the prices for the use of tracks. More 70 percent profit brings bowling bar and restaurant, but 25 - the use of tracks. In this kitchen organization, installation of slot machines and other forms of modern entertainment will create an additional source of income - so, Organization of corporate parties can fill the bowling club to capacity.

Calculation of play equipment sizes

Length

The generally accepted standard size 25,35 m. from the takeoff area to the rear of pinspotter. Zone Length of start usually reaches 4,9 m. Standard path reaches a length generally (from the foul line to the pin deck rear) – 19,2 m. The presence pinspotter requires additional 1,2 m.

Counting the total size of the equipment for bowling, it is also necessary to take into account the presence of variables such as the passage for personnel (is provided for the purpose of access to the rear of the pinspotter for repair and maintenance, also there is the presence of free space can be stored equipment for other equipment) and a seating area for players, which typically consists of several comfortable chair or sofa. For recreation area sufficient to provide about 2 m. This distance is directly dependent on the number of players on the track, number of tracks, variations in arrangement of furniture, and its dimensions. The best option is considered to be a relaxation area, which will allow players to not cross the playing field in the process of moving.

Visually expand the space, you can use design tweaks - placing on the walls along the walkway mirrors, paintings or even windows.

 

 

Calculation of the space width of the bowling club

 

experts note, that the best option would be the extra space in the form of a passage width 0,9 meters along both sides of a bowling green. Door for technicians, leading in the technical area, for convenience, can be positioned at the end of the passage. Without a side passage technicians have to do tunneling by cupping over bollretornom, escape by crawling decorative masking panel and climb over pinspotter. If a small common room, that such an arrangement will not escape. Each additional pair of tracks, It comes after the eighth, It requires the addition of 3,3 m.

Data, in Table, are indicative and minimum to ensure the normal operation of the tracks. Aesthetics in these tables do not take into account the. Area is desirable to make the widest possible, especially if it is placed before 4 tracks. Qualitative foundation is of great importance for mounting tracks.

The basis for the subsequent installation of the track can serve slab of concrete with a layer of moisture barrier material at least 100 mm, wherein the drop plate level must be not more 15 mm over the entire area of ​​the bowling area. If the slope parameters are different in a big way, It is directly under the structural frame of the track need to put a number of acceptable materials, thereby providing the necessary level of surface horizontality.

All the necessary communications and highways, providing further installation and operation of equipment, They must be checked before pouring concrete, otherwise the consequences may be irreversible and result in a number of unforeseen high costs.

The main types of concrete foundations

1. flat.
2. With the deepening of.
3. With trench.

The flat base

The flat base is the most common among bowling clubs. Between the base of the concrete floor and the frame is a ball return system - a distance of 42 cm. enough to accommodate other mechanisms. The flat base is perfect to accommodate a bowling club on the second and subsequent floors of buildings, as well as for the installation of the tracks in the already-built premises. This system is perfect for areas with high groundwater levels or increased risk of flooding.

disadvantages:

1. Ceiling height is reduced by 40 cm.
2. floor level in a recreation area customers, and in the side aisles zone have to raise artificially or need to install steps (ramps)
3. The sides of the tracks require finishing frame.

Concrete substrates with a recess

Benefits:

• It can be used in the construction of a new building.
• If the application is inadmissible steps.
• When, if nessesary, to track the level of match with the rest of the floor surface.
• To maintain a consistently high level of ceilings.

disadvantages:

• more complex, Consequently, more expensive work of building contractors.
• It may be difficult due to the narrow walls of the recess or uneven.
• The need to more accurately calculate all internal communications

The base of the trench

 

The base of this type is suitable in cases:

• To convert the flat base.
• When the ceiling height does not meet standards (it is located just below).
• When installing the platform on a small rise.
• If you can not make a hole in 42 cm. the entire area of ​​the future path.

disadvantages:

• More expensive work contractor.
• The need to finish the frame sides of the tracks.

The organization of work of the bowling club on the upper floors of the shopping center, under pinspotter zone must be properly strengthened and reinforced. At the same time allowed to have floors made of wood and other materials for the game, and the total areas under the condition, they can ensure the safety of players and equipment. floor system must withstand the weight of the equipment and its vibrations. So, pinspottter each may have a weight up to 1100 kg. To check the possibilities of sexual floors is better to invite an outside expert - civil engineer, a licensed architect or.

Additional outbuildings

It is necessary to provide a convenient organized storage for shoes, accessories and care products.

ceilings

The main project ceilings bowling club - is the observance of proportions between the total width and length of the room. Typically, the optimal ceiling height reaches 3-3,5m in a recreation area in the run-up area.

Important!

Acceptable, to the foundation of concrete located at a distance of up to 40 cm. below the track surface, depending on the type of substrate. Low ceilings can prevent the installation of the playground of interactive monitors suspended. In this case the monitors are not better placed over the heads of players, and on the side walls.

ceiling height above pinspotter should be up to Z m, but also be not less 2,4 m. Design ceiling is most often chosen in the form of teeth - this method provides the most optimal light distribution. Installing beams, arches and slopes also fills the space and make it more comfortable. Many modern design styles allow you to perform an open ceiling, through which visible beams and supporting structures. However, it is worth remembering, that such a design will increase the noise level in the room. Well-proven installation of fans over the seating area. Ceiling made in light colors, create a relaxed atmosphere and expand the space. Dark ceiling will require additional light sources.

CURTAINWALL - wall type “false”

This element of the decor immediately performs two useful functions: restrict client access to the equipment and helps to strengthen the back elements of power equipment units.

Price policy

Modern technologies allow to adjust the price of each game almost without effort. So, you can charge clients money as during track use, and for the number of games conducted by them. Good return gives way to price flexibility, depending on the time of day, holidays and weekends - so your restaurant will be able to visit more customers. Experts also note, that the so-called "happy hours", conducted in entertainment establishments, significantly increase the level of customer loyalty to an institution.

The system automatically adapts to each client and issue a check for payment at the end of the session games. Discounts can be assigned to groups of clients: So, students will pay less per game, than middle-aged people in the same day and the same playing time.

Modern software for entertainment centers will allow to manage

1. safety system.
2. Financial statements including tax.
3. Time and staff efficiency.

Some of the accounting system used for security purposes, not only login / password, but also fingerprint data of the owner of the bowling club.

Marketing plan

Today, To really succeed in the marketplace in the entertainment industry, must use all available methods and ways to expand its customer base. The owners of bowling centers in America and Europe for a long time actively used redempshen system, which is designed to build customer loyalty on the basis of distribution of prizes for their victory - most often, it tickets for additional games. Equipment for such a system is simple and compact: each unit is able to serve simultaneously 2 tracks.

Redempshen system works well in bowling, where the focus is on the target audience of children and adolescents - the spirit of competition and the ability to exchange the ticket for a game or a memorable prize from the institution makes the client to return to the club again and again. The ability to integrate the bowling area and slot machines (entertainment centers for medium format). issuance of tickets can be configured, the client to get a prize just for a winning combination - for example,, Strike or spэr.

Staff

To ensure the efficient operation of bowling you will require the following staff:

1. technicians (mechanics), who will monitor the smooth operation pinspotter
2. Operators Pro-shop (increase in the percentage of sales, counseling and communication with customers, you need to hire an experienced specialist). The duties may also include drilling balls for games.
3. Managing a bowling center
4. junior staff (change managers, instructors, administrators), specialists and other cleaning services.

The main task of management of the bowling club - is to see to it, to track and not idle time smenivalis wishing to play.

Installation and delivery of equipment should only specialists - scratches on the cover and shortfall when equipped adversely affect the timing of the launch of business and further income entrepreneur. If the equipment is purchased in the "second-hand" format, specialist should evaluate the level of wear and calculate the term continued operation and eventual repair of this equipment. Quality equipment will not require any maintenance for at least 20 years old.

 

 

The use of technology in the club

One of the novelties, which are relatively new to the entertainment market - an interactive bowling. It looks like this: computerized system tracks the movement of the ball and, accordingly, this changes to video track.
