It all started 15 years ago, when the owners of Del Lanes in Delmar, NY approached me about taking over the Pro Shop. I thought I knew my way around the pro shop business from running the shop at Catskill Hoe Bowl, turns out I had a lot to learn and put a lot of effort into learning the modern game of bowling. With the help of Bill Cornell, Amber Giuliani, Storm Bowling, Vise Inserts, and many others along the way – Revolutions Pro Shop has now grown to 3 locations in the Capital Region. Connor and Taylor LeClair, who grew up working in the pro shops, have become great ball drilling technicians with extensive knowledge of the game, are now co-owners of Revolutions.
In 2017, Mike Scaccia asked me to help take over the Boulevard Bowl pro shop in Schenectady, NY, making this our 2nd location. We can’t thank Mike enough for giving us the opportunity and all the help he has provided over the years. Our Boulevard location has steadily grown every year, and this year we decided to re-model the shop and bring on Matt Fazzone to manage this location. Matt has been drilling bowling balls for 10+ years and is a huge asset to the team.
Earlier in 2024, we added our 3rd location at Kingpin’s Alley Latham in Latham, NY. We would like to thank Carol Judge and Doug Bohannon for allowing us to come in and create the most upscale pro shop in the area. With the help of some family, friends, and everyone at Revolutions, we completely renovated the shop and brought in the newest drilling technology. Thank you Innovative and Vise for all the great equipment! We also added another new member to our team this year, Corey Miglucci. Corey attended Innovative Pro Shop Drilling School this year and has become a valuable member of our team already. You will find Corey helping and drilling bowling balls at all our locations.
