SPI is proud to welcome a pioneering athlete to the 900 Global staff.

Shawn Beam, a decorated competitor and respected figure in the adaptive sports community, has officially joined the Global team. Based in Texas, Beam made history by becoming the first freehand wheelchair bowler to roll a certified 300 game—an achievement that elevated awareness for wheelchair athletes across the sport.

“It is an honor and privilege to be joining the Global team. SPI has always been a well-respected organization in the bowling industry, and I am proud to be part of the team,” says Beam, “The support SPI has given to the wheelchair bowling community, and the sport of bowling as a whole is unparalleled. I will do my best to represent Global and SPI in keeping with their high standards and quality equipment. Go Team Global! “

A longtime bowler with decades of experience on the lanes, Beam has represented Team USA in international competition and continues to push boundaries in both performance and advocacy. His addition to Global underscores the brand’s commitment to supporting athletes who inspire excellence and progress in bowling.

“We’re incredibly proud to welcome Shawn Beam to the 900 Global team. As one of the top wheelchair bowlers in the country, Shawn represents the power of perseverance, skill, and passion for the game. His presence on our staff not only elevates the 900 Global brand, but it also inspires bowlers everywhere to push boundaries and chase greatness!” Gary Hulsenberg, VP of Marketing, Storm Products Inc.

Welcome to Team Global, Shawn!
