The Los Angeles Clippers took over Keystone Lanes in Norwalk March 25 weekend to celebrate their 12th annual Los Angeles Clippers Foundation Charity BasketBowl Challenge.

“[Chris Paul] is pretty good, but at his bowling event, my team won,” Clippers forward Blake Griffin said before the start of the event on Sunday. “So I will let that speak for itself.”

Teams of season ticket holders, sponsors and other Clippers fans faced off against one another in a day full of fun, prizes, giveaways and plenty of laughs – all for a good cause. All proceeds from the event benefit the Los Angeles Clippers Foundation, which exists to foster and support community outreach programs and activities primarily for children in greater Los Angeles.

Each Clippers player and coach was assigned to a team of bowlers, giving attendees a chance to see the team in action off the basketball court.  Each Clipper’s player had their own custom bowling ball made with the team name on one side and their jersey number and name on the other.
