I'd suggest those who were unsuccessful should keep an eye on the teams and be aware that all the picks have been taken and therefore they won't be called. I don't think any organisation I've officiated in has called in this circumstance, you simply announce that the teams are now full. And...

Right right right. I was trying to work out something similar once. The best I found was that Golf somehow pulled it off, Ive been meaning to ask a local course what their arrangements are with the national body. Well anyway, I don't bowl much myself these days so I couldn't really...

Sorry, I didn't clearly state why I felt it wasn't clear, how ironic. I don't understand what a Tournament Bowlers Association is going to do, exactly?

I'm 26, and I have put countless hours and money into this sport, but I have absolutely no idea what this ATBA was beyond this thread. Your original post was huge, talked about a half a dozen things, and didn't ask anything specific. Immediately someone said "you mean like ATBA", well since I...

Wish I had your cash paying participants at my events, I usually get almost exactly the right cash to pay the lineage but not prizes. In the case of these majors though, who pays cash? Credit cards all the way, in which case they don't have cash on hand to present. Plus I think the case goes...

If AMF have pulled out of here, one would assume they want you to go to their website for live scores and won't give TB permission to reproduce them. To that I say, there is no reason why any person can't sit there at the event and record the scores themselves if you want to, however COPYING...

I'd like them to be learning to bowl in reality, not thinking they're way better than they are because they're scoring well and don't get motivated to improve.

I would escalate it to TBA, it was an accredited tournament... The major problem with that approach is it effects their future accreditation, then since they can't get events accredited might they stop bothering?

In charge of what? AMF (or people) choose to run tournaments. If they want to be recognised, and have the incentive to the bowlers of ranking points or otherwise accredited competition, then they apply to TBA for accreditation. TBA owns the rules, and the national teams. Tournament...

What? That makes no sense... Tournaments are run by *someone* and accredited by TBA. The only event TBA runs is nationals, and their affiliated states run a state champs. TBA has been responsible for making sure the events that are run fit the structure, rules, and development of the sport...

Ah, well THAT answers my question from the other thread

Does that mean no AMF run events will be posted or advertised on here at all? For example, AO, Nationals, SPC... ?

I want that 30 seconds of my life back...

That's abismal, take the hard equipment kids! Watch out for the bumpers!

Sue, Rach is a debutant, you may be confusing her with big sister Rebecca

Well, what I can count is that 35 is the same number we had in the ACT. Our two bowls together scraped that up... What happened to taking on NSW numbers? Since you failed the numbers challenged, I guess the next challenge involves the medals?

Must be April 1st... Good morning everybody

Do I see 33 names only on that final list?

Look out draft...

Don't worry Palma, I told the new blood to watch out for Cheryl and Sandy as "they've been known to bite and scratch" on the microphone :p

Sorry, forgot to clear the print area. Try this

Results and scores attached. Congratulations to our Masters Representatives; Dean Pilton (Res Male) Graham Shoesmith (Cls Male) Tracey Petrass (Res Female) Mary-Lou Krout (Cls Female) Congratulations to all who made either or both teams, look forward to seeing you in September...

Holt Trials scores after the first days play, and the pattern we're on are attached. It was an interesting days play, the lanes are playing quite interestingly and whilst some would disagree I'd say that's not a bad thing. It looks like good shots are being rewarded, but there is no...

ACTTBA would like to invite interested parties to nominate as staff for the 2009 Representative Teams of Bowlers with a Disability. For further information; http://www.globaltenpin.com/Blogs/ACTTBA/post/Managers-and-Coaches-sought-for-Bowlers-with-a-Disability.aspx

Re: Qld State Championships Good luck with that remarkable format guys, I look forward to seeing if that does the trick.
