Operations

Many centres also include amusement arcades with attractions such as Sector 7 laser tag, table tennis, air hockey, pool, soft play, karaoke, escape rooms and escape themed crazy golf. Many existing sites were formerly known as Megabowl until they were refurbished and reopened as a Tenpin site under the name Tenpin 10 by 2008.[4] Tenpin carried out a rebranding of all sites during the late 2010s.[5]

Tenpin sites are also used as venues for local and national ten-pin league competitions.
