and the aggregate market value of the common shares (based upon the closing
price of these shares on the American Stock Exchange) of Bowl America
Incorporated held by nonaffiliates was approximately $43 million; 1,483,620
Class B common shares were outstanding.  Class B common shareholders have the
right to convert their Class B common to Class A common stock on a share for

stock would be approximately $60 million.  (This includes the amount of
shares held by all officers and directors as a group and by anyone known to
own more than 5% of the stock.)

                                   PART I

ITEM 1.  BUSINESS

         (a)   General Development of Business

         Bowl America Incorporated (herein referred to as the Company) was
incorporated in 1958.  The Company commenced business with one bowling center
in 1958, and at the end of the past fiscal year, the Company and its wholly-
owned subsidiaries operated 19 bowling centers.

         During fiscal year 2002 the Company closed two leased centers at the
expiration of their leases.  Bowl America Reisterstown, in metropolitan
Baltimore, Maryland, was operating at break-even when it closed in August 2001.
Bowl America Duke, located in the metropolitan Washington D.C. area, closed
in May 2002 after the Company was unable to negotiate a new lease.

         (b)   Financial Information about Industry Segments

         The Company operates in one segment.  Its principal source of
revenue consists of fees charged for the use of bowling lanes and other
facilities and from the sale of food and beverages for consumption on the
premises.  Merchandise sales, including food and beverages, were approximately
30% of operating revenues.  The balance of operating revenues (approximately
70%) represents fees for bowling and related services.

         (c)   Narrative Description of Business

         As of September 1, 2002 the Registrant and its subsidiaries operated
11 bowling centers in the greater metropolitan area of Washington, D.C., one
bowling center in the greater metropolitan area of Baltimore, Maryland, one
bowling center in Orlando, Florida, three bowling centers in the greater
metropolitan area of Jacksonville, Florida, and three bowling centers in the
greater metropolitan area of Richmond, Virginia.  These 19 bowling centers
contain a total of 746 lanes.

         These establishments are fully air-conditioned with facilities for
service of food and beverages, game rooms, rental lockers, and playroom
facilities.  All centers provide shoes for rental, and bowling balls are
provided free.  In addition, each center retails bowling accessories.

         The bowling equipment essential for the Company's operation is
readily available.  The major source of its equipment is Brunswick Corporation.

         The bowling business is a seasonal one, and most of the business takes
place from October through May.  It is highly competitive, but the Company has
managed to maintain its position in the field.  The principal method of
competition is the quality of service furnished to the Company's customers.
Its primary competitors are two large bowling equipment manufacturers,
Brunswick Corporation and AMF, Inc.

         Compliance with federal, state and local environmental protection laws
has not materially affected the Company.

         The number of persons employed by the Company and its subsidiaries is
approximately 700.

         (d)   Foreign Operations

         The Company has no foreign operations.



ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES

         The Company's general offices are located at 6446 Edsall Road,
Alexandria, Virginia 22312.

         Two of the Company's bowling centers are located in leased premises,
and the remaining seventeen centers are owned by the Company.  The Company's
leases expire from 2009 through 2014.  In addition to the above, there is one
ground lease which expires in 2058.  The specific locations of the bowling
centers are discussed under Item 1 (c).

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

         There are no material pending legal proceedings other than ordinary
routine litigation incidental to the business.

ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

         No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during the
fourth quarter ended June 30, 2002.

                               PRESIDENT'S LETTER

September 18, 2002

Dear Fellow Owners:

Breakfast becomes more difficult if you combine it with a look at the
business pages of your local newspaper.  My paper recently featured
an article on the continuing increase in health insurance rates.  All
summer I read about the drought, never the best time for the bowling
business.  AOL and WorldCom laid off workers in the area surrounding
Dulles airport, where much of our successful expansion in the 90's
was centered.  And it takes only a bankbook, not a newspaper, to keep
you informed about what has happened to interest rates, which influence
the return on the cash portion of our reserves.  Add to these external
factors our inability to renew the lease at one of our profitable centers
and you can see that this is a year in which we will have our work cut out
for us.

Many of the factors that enabled us to survive previous recessions are in
place today.  We have a strong financial position, we were frugal during the
good times, we have good locations and we have what is collectively the best
bowling center staff in the business.  This is the third year of a declining
stock market, and once again, there has been no legislation designed to help
companies prosper.  There is little difference from 1993, when I wrote in
our annual report...

     "However, we now have a tax bill that favors real estate
      speculators over building owners, debt over reinvested
      equity, and traders of stock over long-term owners of
      businesses.  The failure to tailor the new tax law to
      the limitless prosperity this country should have almost
      guarantees a return of the worst of the excesses-too much
      debt, allocation of capital to mergers and acquisitions
      rather than expansion, and uncontrolled speculation.

      The problem did not begin with this year's tax writers.
      It is difficult to envision an economy aimed at creating
      long-term growth that allows corporate governance to be
      controlled by a body named The Securities and Exchange
      Commission.  Businesses should be structured to succeed,
      not to sell or exchange."

The 90's focus on trading pieces of paper (stock shares) instead of investing
in companies has had its predictable result.  Many investors are left with
depressed portfolios at just the time they need their money.  Sadly, most
people did not get a fair share from the rising market.  According to a
prominent fund manager, individual mutual fund accounts grew at less than
half the rate of the funds themselves because most of us buy high and sell
low.  Furthermore, most actual funds didn't perform as well as the market
as a whole.  Profits from trading have proven to not be a fair way to
distribute the results of corporate success.

The financial community, which fueled the bubble, has succeeded in deflecting
any real solutions to these problems.  Rather, honest companies are faced with
a variety of new regulations being imposed without any public discussion of
their impact on the profitability and inventiveness of the companies or on the
efficiency of the economy as a whole.

I have always held that our objective should be to help our shareholders
prosper through their ownership of Bowl America.  We expect this will be our
thirty-first consecutive year of increased per share dividends.  More and more
respected voices are now supporting dividends as a method of rewarding
ownership and promoting corporate honesty.  Dividends have the benefit of
being paid in cash, not accounting fantasy.  The disadvantage is that they are
subject to double taxation.  But tax laws can and should be changed.

Your support, both in terms of your encouragement and your continuing to hold
your shares, is our best indication that Bowl America has met your investment
needs.

       MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash flow provided by operating activities in fiscal 2002 was $5,955,000 which
was sufficient to meet day-to-day cash needs.  Short-term investments consist-
ing mainly of U.S. Treasury Notes and Bills, cash and cash equivalents
totaled $9,818,000 at the end of fiscal 2002 compared to $7,575,000 at the
end of fiscal 2001.

The Company expended approximately $1,300,000 for the purchase of bowling
equipment and amusement games during fiscal 2002.  Further equipment purchases
are planned as the Company continues to improve its facilities.  In addition
the Company is seeking property for the development of new locations.  Cash
and cash flows are sufficient to finance all contemplated purchases and
construction.  The Company's position in telecommunication stocks is an
additional source of expansion capital.  These securities are carried at their
fair value on the last day of the year.  The value of these securities on
June 30, 2002 was $4 million or approximately $2.2 million lower than at
July 1, 2001.

Dividends per share increased for the thirtieth consecutive year.  Cash
dividends of $2.4 million and a 5% stock dividend were paid to shareholders
during the fiscal year.  All earnings per share figures in this report reflect
the effect of the stock dividend.  In June 2002, the Company declared a $.12
per share dividend, paid in August 2002, which was an increase over the
previous quarterly dividend.  While no factors requiring a change in the
dividend rate are yet apparent, the Board of Directors decides the amount and
timing of any dividend at its quarterly meeting based on its appraisal of the
state of the business and estimate of future opportunities.

Two leased locations were closed during fiscal 2002.  In the first quarter, a
center operating at break-even was closed at the end of its lease.  During the
fourth quarter a profitable location ceased operations after the Company was
unable to negotiate a new lease.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

In the peak bowling season of fiscal 2002 twenty centers were in operation.
Twenty-one locations were in operation during the comparable season in  fiscal
2001 and in fiscal 2000 there were 22 centers in operation.  Fiscal years 2002
and 2001 each consisted of 52-weeks, while fiscal 2000 was a 53-week year.
The changes in the number of centers in operation and the extra week of
business in fiscal 2000 affected all income, expense and comparisons for the
periods presented in this report.

Operating revenues increased 1% in fiscal 2002 and 2% in the prior fiscal year.
Bowling and other revenue increased slightly in both years.  Although total
linage decreased from the prior year, linage at comparable locations in
operation for the peak seasons of both fiscal 2002 and 2001 increased slightly.
Increases in the average game rate contributed to the rise in revenues in both
years.

Food, beverage and merchandise sales climbed 4% in the current fiscal year and
5% in the prior year.  Cost of sales were up 12% in the current year partially
due to promotional pricing on some resale bowling equipment.  In the prior
fiscal year cost of sales rose 6%.

Total operating expense decreased slightly in the current year and increased
6% in the prior year.  Costs for employee compensation and benefits increased
3% in both the current and prior fiscal years.

Maintenance costs decreased 10% in the current fiscal year after rising 27%
in the prior year period when the Company resurfaced the majority of
its wooden bowling lanes.  Supplies expenses fell 5% in fiscal 2002 but were
flat in the comparable prior year period.  Advertising expense dropped 4% and
8% respectively in the two fiscal periods.  Utility costs decreased 1% in the
current year after a 3% increase in the previous year period partially as a
result of the milder winter in fiscal 2002.

Rent expense decreased 1% in the current year and 19% in the prior year.  The
prior year decrease reflects both the closing of a leased location and the
purchase of a formerly leased location.  Insurance costs jumped 32% in the
current fiscal year after an increase of 15% in the prior fiscal year.  Higher
premiums as a result of the events of September 11, 2001, were the primary cause
for the current year increase although there was already an industry-wide
upward trend in the prior year.

Depreciation expenses decreased 9% and 8% in fiscal 2002 and 2001
respectively.  Large assets reaching full depreciation and fewer locations in
operation were responsible for the decreases in both years.

The decrease in general and administrative expenses in the current year and
the increase in that same category in the prior year primarily relate to legal
expenses associated with the Company's defense of a lawsuit brought by a
former employee.  The suit commenced in the first quarter of fiscal year 2001
and was decided in the Company's favor in the fourth quarter of 2001.

Interest and dividend income declined from the prior year.  In part the
decrease is due to lower interest rates on investments.  In the prior fiscal
year this category included the receipt in cash of $219,000 as a result of
the AT&T/MediaOne merger.

The Company's effective income tax rates were 36.1% in 2002, 34.7% in 2001 and
35.9% in 2000, the difference from statutory rates being primarily for the
partial exclusion of dividends received on investments and the state tax
exemption for interest on U.S. Government obligations.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Critical accounting policies have the potential to have an impact on the
Company's financial statements, either because of the significance of the
financial statement item to which they relate, or because they require
judgment and estimation due to the uncertainty involved in measuring at a
specific point in time, events that are continuous in nature.  Due to the
nature of its business, the Company has no accounting policies which it
considers critical to the understanding of the Company's financial reporting.

                   BOWL AMERICA INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Description of Business
    Bowl America Incorporated is engaged in the operation of 19 bowling
centers, with food and beverage service in each center.  Eleven centers are
located in metropolitan Washington D.C., one center in metropolitan
Baltimore, Maryland, one center in metropolitan Orlando, Florida, three
centers in metropolitan Richmond, Virginia, and three centers in metropolitan
Jacksonville, Florida.  These 19 centers contain a total of 746 lanes.

Principles of Consolidation
    The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and all of its wholly owned subsidiary corporations.  All significant inter-
company items have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

Fiscal Year
    The Company's fiscal year ends on the Sunday nearest to June 30.  Fiscal
year 2002 ended June 30, 2002, fiscal year 2001 ended July 1, 2001, and fiscal
year 2000 ended July 2, 2000.  Fiscal years 2002 and 2001 each consisted of
52 weeks.  Fiscal year 2000 consisted of 53 weeks.

Estimates
     The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts
of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results may
differ from those estimates.  Significant estimates include the deferred
compensation liability for executives and key employees including survivor
benefits, cash surrender value of officers' life insurance, the Federal and
State income taxes (current and deferred), and market assumptions used in
estimating the fair value of certain assets such as marketable securities.

Revenue Recognition
     The Company records revenue for fees charged for use of bowling lanes and
other facilities at the time the services are provided.  Food, beverage and
merchandise sales are recorded as revenue at the time the product is given to
the customer.

Depreciation and Amortization
    Depreciation and amortization for financial statement purposes are calcu-
lated by use of the straight-line method.  Amortization of leasehold improve-
ments is calculated over the estimated useful life of the asset or term of the
lease, whichever is shorter.  The categories of property, plant, and equipment
and the ranges of estimated useful lives on which depreciation and amortization
rates are based are as follows:

              Bowling lanes and equipment             3-10 years
              Building and building improvements     10-30 years
              Leasehold improvements                    10 years
              Amusement games                          3-5 years

    Maintenance and repairs and minor replacements are charged to expense when
incurred.  Major replacements and betterments are capitalized.  The accounts
are adjusted for the sale or other disposition of property, and the resulting
gain or loss is credited or charged to income.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
    The Company reviews long-lived assets whenever events or changes indicate
that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  In making such
evaluations, the Company compares the expected future cash-flows to the
carrying amount of the assets.  An impairment loss, equal to the difference
between the assets' fair value and carrying value, is recognized when
the estimated future cash flows are less that the carrying amount.

Inventories
    Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method)
or market.

Income Taxes
    Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109, "Accounting for Income
Taxes".  Under this method, deferred income tax liabilities and assets
are based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases
of assets and liabilities, using tax rates currently in effect. A valuation
allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that a deferred tax
asset will not be realized.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
    The fair value of short-term investments and the noncurrent marketable
security portfolio is disclosed in Note 3.

Investment Securities
    The Company accounts for its investments in accordance with SFAS No. 115
"Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities".  All of
the Company's readily marketable debt and equity securities are classified as
available-for-sale.  Accordingly these securities are recorded at fair value
with any unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported, net
of deferred taxes, within a separate component of stockholders' equity until
realized.  Realized gains or losses on the sale of debt and equity securities
are reported in earnings and determined using the adjusted cost of the
specific security sold.

Earnings Per Share
    Earnings per share basic and diluted, have been calculated using the
weighted average number of shares of Class A and Class B common stock
outstanding of 5,132,083,  5,222,876 and 5,587,892, respectively, and have been
adjusted to reflect both the 5% stock dividend distributed on July 26, 2001
and the 5% stock dividend distributed on July 26, 2000.

Comprehensive Earnings
    In accordance with SFAS No. 130 "Reporting Comprehensive Income",  a
consolidated statement of comprehensive earnings reflecting the aggregation
of net earnings and unrealized gain or loss on available-for-sale securities,
the Company's principal components of other comprehensive earnings, has been
presented for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2002.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
    For purposes of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, the Company
considers money market funds, certificates of deposits, repurchase agreements
and treasury securities with original maturities of three months or less to be
cash equivalents.

New Accounting Pronouncements
    In June 2002, SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs of Exit or Disposal
Activities" was issued.  SFAS No. 146 supercedes Emerging Issues Task Force
Issue ("EITF") No. 94-3 "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termina-
tion Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including certain costs
incurred in a restructuring)".  This statement requires that an exit or
disposal activity related cost be recognized when the liability is incurred
instead of when an entity commits to an exit plan.  The provisions of SFAS
No. 146 are effective for financial transactions initiated after December 15,
2002.  The Company does not believe SFAS No. 146 will have a material impact
on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

    In August 2001, SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal
of Long-Lived Assets", was issued and is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2001.  This statement supercedes SFAS No. 121,
"Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets
to be Disposed of", and the accounting and reporting provisions of
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30, "Reporting the Results of
Operations--Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and
Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions"
for the disposal of a segment of a business.  SFAS No. 144 retains many of
the provisions of SFAS No. 121, but addresses certain implementation issues
associated with that statement.  The Company will adopt the provisions of
SFAS No. 144 effective July 1, 2002.  The Company believes that the adoption
of SFAS No. 144 will not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated
financial statements.

    In August 2001, SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations"
was issued.  SFAS No. 143 addresses financial accounting and reporting obliga-
tions associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the
associated asset retirement costs.  SFAS No. 143 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2002.  The Company will adopt the provisions of SFAS
No. 143 effective July 1, 2002.  The Company believes SFAS No. 143 will not
have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Lease Commitments
    The Company and its subsidiaries are obligated under long-term real estate
lease agreements for three bowling centers.  Certain of the Company's real
estate leases provide for additional annual rents based upon total gross
revenues and increases in real estate taxes and insurance.

     At June 30, 2002, the minimum fixed rental commitments related to all
noncancelable leases, were as follows:

           Year Ending

6.  STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
    The Class A shares have one vote per share voting power.  The Class B
shares may vote ten votes per share and are convertible to Class A shares at
the option of the stockholder.

    At June 30, 2002 and July 1, 2001, the Company had $43,956 and $88,623,
respectively, in employee loans related to the issuance of shares.  These
loans are secured by the shares of the Company's common stock acquired and are
full recourse notes.  The notes bear interest at rates of 6% to 6 1/2% and are
payable over a term of 3 years from the date of the agreements which range
from 2000 to 2001.  These employee loans have been recorded as a reduction of
additional paid-in capital.

    The Company distributed a 5% stock dividend on July 26, 2001, where
Class A and B stockholders received one share of common stock for each
twenty shares of Class A and Class B common stock held as of the date of record.

7.  PROFIT-SHARING AND ESOP PLAN
    The Company has a profit-sharing plan which, generally, covers all individ-
uals who were employed at the end of the fiscal year and had one thousand or
more hours of service during that fiscal year.  The Plan provides for Company
contributions as determined by the Board of Directors.  For the years ended
June 30, 2002, July 1, 2001, and July 2, 2000, contributions in the amount of
$165,000, $160,000, and $170,000, respectively, were charged to operations.

    Effective March 31, 1987, the Company adopted an Employee Stock Ownership
Plan (ESOP) which generally covers all employees who on the last day of the
fiscal year or December 29 have been employed for one year with at least one
thousand hours of service.  The Plan provides for Company contributions as
determined by the Board of Directors.  Prior to fiscal year 1995, the
contributions were allocated to participants based on compensation and years
of service.  Contributions since fiscal year 1995 are allocated based on
compensation only in order to comply with Internal Revenue Service code
requirements.  The Company's contributions to the Plan for fiscal years 2002,
2001, and 2000 were $162,600, $165,100, and $178,080, respectively.

8.  INCOME TAXES

ities were as follows:

         Net deferred income taxes           $1,928,000       $2,488,000

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Bowl America Incorporated
Alexandria, Virginia

    We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Bowl
America Incorporated and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2002 and July 1, 2001,
and the related consolidated statements of earnings and comprehensive earnings,
stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three fiscal years in the
period ended June 30, 2002. These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements based on our audits.

    We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America.  Those standards require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

    In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Bowl America Incorporated
and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2002 and July 1, 2001, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the three fiscal years in
the period ended June 30, 2002, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
