throughout our great country<br />
about our sport.”<br />
At age 15 when Beam began<br />
bowling, it wasn’t something<br />
he really wanted to do, but<br />
after his family, which had<br />
always been involved in the<br />
sport, insisted, he gave it a try.<br />
<strong>The</strong> first season he bowled,<br />
Beam averaged just 69 but said<br />
the sport “got into his blood”<br />
and he never looked back.<br />
Over the past few years,<br />
Beam has become more serious<br />
about his abilities as a wheelchair<br />
bowler. He joined the<br />
AWBA and began competing in<br />
the organization’s tournaments.<br />
He will compete in the AWBA<br />
National Championships next<br />
month in Milwaukee.<br />
But the most important<br />
thing Beam wants people to<br />
take from his accomplishment<br />
is that bowling is a sport for<br />
anyone confined to a wheelchair,<br />
not just those who want<br />
to be the best.<br />
“<strong>The</strong> best thing about<br />
wheelchair bowling is you have<br />
that sense of camaraderie you<br />
have in sports,” Beam said.<br />
“You don’t have to be good, because<br />
anyone can bowl and it’s<br />
fun for anyone no matter what<br />
your average is. But people<br />
can’t get discouraged because<br />
I’m a testament to how you can<br />
start with a low average and<br />
make it to the top with hard<br />
work and perseverance.”<br />
Even with all the hard work<br />
Beam has put into the sport, he<br />
never imagined he would be<br />
celebrating a perfect game.<br />
“<strong>Bowling</strong> a 300 game was<br />
something I never thought was<br />
possible, and I can’t explain<br />
what it feels like,” Beam said.<br />
“I threw the last ball and I<br />
knew I had hit my mark and<br />
everything was right. When it<br />
struck, I was overwhelmed. If I<br />
could have fallen to my knees,<br />
I would have.”<br />
<strong>The</strong> American Wheelchair<br />
<strong>Bowling</strong> Association, which<br />
certifies its competition with<br />
the United States <strong>Bowling</strong><br />
Congress, has more than 500<br />
members and conducts an<br />
average of 10 tournaments each<br />
year. For more information on<br />
