2012 Bathurst Real Estate Pitstop and Live Streaming

[magpi17]

We just got home home and as always had a great weekend, introduced another Taree bowler to the Pitstop and he loved it. As I've said before it is without doubt the Tournament Dazz and I look forward to every year. Well run good people take a bow guy's you deserve it, Have a drink Dwayne it's over for another year. I will begin practice and might even shout myself some coaching cause if theres 1 cut I would love to make it is the Pitstop, Ha Ha.
Congratulations to the winners well done.
Cheers
Neil

On behalf of the participants in the 2012 Bathurst Real Estate Pitstop...

Tenpin Bathurst would like to thank Stacey and Michael Whittaker the proprietors of Bathurst Real Estate for their support of this years event. Truely "Leaders In The Game!", Michael and Stacey also support our Silver Strikers League (seniors) as well as many other regional events and sporting teams. Without their generous support many such events would not be possible. I would like to personally commend them for their efforts in supporting the local community and encourage you to consider Bathurst Real Estate - for all your property matters

In fact without their support we would not have been able to guarantee first, second and third places whilst maintaining the intended 1:2 payout ratio after a number of drop - outs in the final weeks.

As always thank you to all bowlers that participated in this years event and to those bowlers above for such positive comments regarding the tournament and Bathurst Real Estate's Sponsorship.

We thank the participants for providing us and many spectators with some close competition and very high scores. We look forward to seeing you all next year

Congratulations to...
Dale Fitzgerald Winner of the 2012 Bathurst Real Estate Pitstop

This is the only place i've ever been asked, and probably will ever be asked, if the temperature was ok on the lanes!!

All the Prices are amazing people, and if they can be accused of anything, its caring TOO much.

As Dad said we will be there to bowl every year that its running. If anybody reading this has ever pondered about bowling this event, take the punt, you wont regret it. Great staff and organisers, great food at the cafe. Warm (but not too warm) friendly atmosphere.

Big congratulations to Dale, George and Shaun. Well bowled fellas.

Big thanks to the sponsors, Bathurst Real Estate (who my wife and I just purchased our new home from!), as well as the many minor sponsors who donated cash, time and products.

I was very excited to read that you have obtained ongoing support from Bathurst Real Estate into the 2013 event. This is recognition of your amazing efforts. Book me in for B Squad! And book the date in now! Just in case State League need any further notice.

Cheers,
Jason

Of course, HUGE thanks to the Price family and Jemmo (who let's face it, is part of the Price family these days!). You all put in an amazing effort to make this tournament run better every year.

Bar one scoring hiccup, the centre ran like a Swiss watch all weekend. It takes a lot of preparation (and a little bit of good luck) for this to happen.

Well done guys. I hope Dwayne's got some sleep since then! His thousand yard stare at dinner on Saturday was a little distressing!

Thanks again to all for the positive responses

- Jason you are correct their is a lot of time and effort put into making any tournament happen let alone run well and there is a lot of people in the back ground that bowlers don't see that work on these events long before and after the event is forgotten until next year.

Sorry but I must repeat myself when I again thank our support team and attribute such great responses to them for without commitment from everyone involved it would not be possible...

As for dates Jules has already been onto Mr Forbes,

As for moving the event again next year,
It was also suggested by some bowlers that we once again move the tournament although it was considered viable...

At this stage for at least 2013 it will stay somewhere around this time of year.
Among other minor issues I am sure everyone will appreciate that our tournament sponsor should not be asked to contribute to your prize fund any sooner

Regards
Dwayne
