    8 pins a game.. with a twist

    Firstly there are no rich bowlers from tournament bowling in this Country.. Many moons ago we used to have a really strong Grand Prix competition and there was an event to bowl in every week somewhere. We still had the top ten winning everything, trust me I know as I was one paying into the...

    8 pins a game.. with a twist

    I was there watching the Newcastle Cup It was a very tough condition to bowl on The pins was worth more like 20 Having said that a few managed to bowl okay on it and Bec and Bee worked hard What it does show to me is that a Centre without an appropriate Kegel technology machine should not be...

    James Contact the TBA in QLD Office The new classifications for a disabled person are much wider than they once were, which is a bit of a joke really... They can give you all the details you require cheers Geoff

    8 pins a game.. with a twist

    James I am not quite sure If my response is directed correctly to your questioning listed above however this is how I read it I'm sorry mate this is not something that should be explored there are lots of events for people with a disability to contest The 8 pin thing for women is a...

    Question

    Well I would say you should keep both balls in the Centre and not allow either of them to leave until the balls can be verified by someone. Alternatively Ring the TBA ASAP for direction

    Qubica Bowling World Cup - Siberia

    That would not have been part of the criteria when it was in Aust last time lol !!! I don't think we would have a Centre anywhere in Aust that would qualify Plenty of AMF Centres have Brunswick gear in them, several of them have machines that are plus 30 years old That would also be why the cost...

    Highest league average in Australia

    That attitude has come about because of the cost of a practice game I used to Bowl 3 leagues a week then bowl at least 10 games a week practice Practice was practice and Leagues were important and a training ground for Tournaments

    2014 Nationals

    The best option in Australia is Rooty Hill The question is will AMF put the Centre up for tender It is a huge event to run and given their care factor of F.A. it may not happen

    2014 Nationals

    They destroyed Southgate when they did the last refurb This was once the number 1 Centre in Sydney, which was no real surprise given Rockdale and Hurstville closed down

    Terminology: what is a "ditch"?

    Sad but probably true The industry complains about the decline yet they are mostly responsible along with the destruction of the ATBC, don't start me on that, AND the sale of AMF to a Bank who could care less about anything other than the almighty Dollar and proprietors rushing to the Ditch to...

    Terminology: what is a "ditch"?

    If every Centre In Australia stopped using the THS or Ditch patterns today the league bowlers would quickly learn, problem solved. But they won't, problem remains !!!

    Terminology: what is a "ditch"?

    That is beautiful !!! Well said sir To me it is cheating end of story To many others of this "Modern game" it is evolution How is it possible for a person who averaged 160 / 170 with a rubber or urethane ball to suddenly average 190/200 when they put a new generation "Modern Game" reactive...

    What were the good old days?

    I think a couple of Centres in Sydney were interested in a tender but did not as it was in Sydney for the past 3 years running, At Rooty Hill, the best location in Australia to hold this event I have no idea why more Centres did not Tender but I think that was largely due to the fact that the...

    What were the good old days?

    My understanding of WA not attending Rachuig is quite different to your outline above Cost is a huge concern as well My view of Nationals is it should be held on the East Coast , major City, best Centre Why because That is where the greatest majority of people are and that is a large reason as...
