Congrats to Winners of Inter Centre Challenge at Nationals

[cookie]

Congratulations to the winners of the Challenge and well done to all participants. Amazing to see all 32 bowlers who made it to the top 8 teams bowl amazingly well over their entering averages. Good to see some juniors improving so well in such a short amount of time. Obviously some excellent coaching out there. Outstanding performance by one ACT junior who entered as a 126 average and ended up bowling a 189 average for 15 games. Scores available at http://www.tenpin.org.au/home/

Sorry to say but by the looks of those scores it seems there was a small case of average management happening here.

Perhaps you should read the entering averages on the entry form. The entering averages are taken from the end of year, it is also used for all grades as well. So I think when you say "a small case of average management" that could also be said for the whole of the Nationals (except for Open).

If the averages were taken as at 31 May the result may or may not have changed. But don't go accusing these juniors who put on a very good show and were very gracious in winning and losing, being SANDBAGGERS. Isn't that the same as AVERAGE MANAGEMENT. :twisted: :twisted:

Always be careful when trying to use words to disguise what you really mean.

Hi everyone!

Just want to say a Big Congratulations to all the ACT Junior bowlers. A hat trick to boot!


These kids put in the hard yakka and it's not the same kids each year either. It's hard enough to get any kid interested in a sport let alone tenpin bowling. Back off to those with your SANDBAGGERS comment! :evil:

To the manager-Shaz: Well done once again!!!

Cheers,
Ewok

What I meant to say here was ( I left part of my sentence out) and pushed the wrong button.
"winning and losing". ........But being Sandbaggers "never".

But what Scoreggia has insnuated is that Average management is the same as sandbagging.

Please accept my appols for not reading first before submitting.

Congrats to all Juniors who bowled and a huge Congrats to the juniors from the ACT

Big effort 1st, 3rd &4th

That win made it 3 consecutive years that a Team from Canberra International Bowl has taken out the event

How can anyone even suggest that 12, 13 & 14yr olds SANDBAG.

Michael Craig is the Junior in question with his brilliant effort during the I/Cup.

When i arrived at the centre late last year he was using a 11lb plastic ball conventionally.

During the past 8 months Michael has acquired several top line balls, gone to 14lb & 15lb bowls 3-6 days per week, had several sessions with various people around the trap. his practise goes to the extent that about once a month he goes down and bowls for a w/end in Shellharbour.

So i ask is it his fault the rules ask for averages at the end of 2002, or is it his fault he has learnt the game quicker than some.

Instead of knocking the kid, why not pat him on the back and nuture his talents as one day he maybe someone kicking ur BUTT

again congratulations to the ENTIRE Team, cause Michael didnt win it by himself please all remember that

Krystal Guy, Glyn Thwaites, Allan Parbs, Kyle Webber and Michael Craig

A special big thanks to Sherilee, Cameron and Liam. these guys worked tirelessly over the trip as all team officials do, well done guys a job well done

I would like to congratulate the members of my team REDCLIFFE GOLD who lost by only a single point. We led by a point going into the final match and it was contested down to the very last frame of the very last bowler. Well done to my teamates Gary Moore, Michaela Garvey, John Morris and Clayton Suhan. Great bowling all of you. And thankyou to all the parents who supported us it meant a lot.
