We ask all players to arrive 10 -15mins before their session start time. Public throwing lanes will always start on time as we don’t want to keep other players waiting. If you arrive late you may not be allowed to join the lane. This is because it wouldn’t be fair to stop the other guests’ gameplay in order to give your group the safety guidelines and instructions.

If you have booked a private throwing lane, there isn’t an issue if you are late aside from the grief you will get from other members of your group if they are waiting! You will still need to end at the scheduled time.
