Philippine Bowling Federation

The Philippine Bowling Federation (PBF) is a duly-accredited governing body of Tenpin Bowling in the Philippines. PBF is currently recognized by the Philippine Olympic Committee, Philippine Sports Commission, Asian Bowling Federation, and World Bowling.[1]

It was formed in 2016, replacing the now-defunct Philippine Bowling Congress with different stakeholders including former national athletes, bowling clubs, associations and players as the incorporators. Former national bowler and incumbent Senator Vicente Sotto III is the federation's Chairman, while POC Secretary-General Stephen Hontiveros is the current president.[1] Paeng Nepomuceno led the coaching staff of the Philippine national bowling team.

The federation's first event was the 2016 PBF National Championships at the Coronado Lanes, Mandaluyong on December 3–4, 2016.[1]
