The Professional Bowlers Association (PBA) has no player salaries, which allows it to reinvest revenue into marketing and growing the sport. As a niche sport, the PBA can tailor its content to dedicated bowling fans. It has over 3,000 members from 27 countries and hosts international events. However, athletes lack financial security due to low earnings. Most events are in small bowling alleys, limiting revenue. The PBA's deal with Fox Sports increased prize money but it faces competition for viewers from larger Sunday sports. As a solely-owned organization, the PBA faces higher risk than franchised leagues.
