Plot of the film The Ringleader (1996 film):
Roy Munson showed great promise in his youth bowlingAt seventeen, he won the state championship and had a good chance of winning the American championship. However, fate decreed otherwise.
One day, a casual acquaintance from bowling, Ernie McCracken, persuades Roy to play for money. It was against the rules for a professional player to play with amateurs, and Munson should have reported it. But on the advice of his new companion, he did not do so, and paid with his health. The professional "swindlers" whom Munson himself "swindled" for money simply cut off his hand.
At the same time, McCracken himself, who had drawn him into this matter, had successfully escaped. Let's abandon Munson to his fate.
Eighteen years have passed. Losing an arm is a big deal for a person. But for a professional bowler, it's a tragedy that has sent Munson to the bottom of the social pyramid.

But one day, Munson's life changed. He met a farmer, Ishmael Burg, who was good at throwing balls. Unexpectedly for himself, Munson saw great potential in this guy and offered to work with him. Munson's experience, multiplied by Burg's hard work and talent, could bring good results to the partners.
Moreover, bowling was a lifeline for both of them. Ishmael dreamed of winning a large sum of money at bowling to save the community from eviction. For Munson, it was a good way to return to the big sport, albeit as a coach.
Especially since the American Championship with a prize fund of a million dollars was about to take place. A big prize for which the best bowling players would compete, including the ill-fated Ernie McCracken…
