I believe the answer is:

underarm

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This might be a double definition.

'was this style' is the first definition.
'underarm' can be an answer for 'style' (I have seen 'Style of bowling ' mean 'underarm' so perhaps 'style' could also mean 'underarm'). I'm not certain of the rest of the definition.

'bowling such sweat?' is the second definition.
'underarm' can be an answer for 'bowling' (I have seen 'Such bowling' mean 'underarm' so perhaps 'bowling' could also mean 'underarm'). I am unsure of the 'such sweat?' bit.

'of' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for underarm that I've seen before include "Bowling below shoulder level" , "Soft type of bowling or serve" , "Unmarred (anag.)" , "a pit's description" , "How they used to deliver" .)
