In 1947, she began hosting an instructional and exhibition series known as "Bowl with Laverne," which was hosted by various bowling centers across the United States over the next seven years. Carter won several singles, doubles, and team tournaments between 1951 and 1974 for the various bowling organizations that existed then. Along with then-husband Don Carter, she was one of the founding members of the Professional Bowlers Association (PBA) in 1958, for which she was given the informal title of "The First Lady of the PBA", and she was one of the founding members of the Professional Women's Bowling Association (PWBA) in 1960.
