Proud Dad Moment

[Brenton_Davy]

How fast they grow up.

Last Monday at the SA Junior Restricted Masters, my 9 year old son, Jay, bowled his first 200 game, a 212, consisting of

Split, turkey, spare, spare, spare, spare, double

He also managed to run 2nd against 12 - 16 year olds, playing his favourite line of straight up 3 board with his 9lb plastic ball. He's a rightie.

Will be tearing me a new one in a very few short years.:surrender::surrender:

Well done son

Good to see juniors doing well and coming up through the ranks.

Well done Jay.

Good to see juniors doing well and coming up through the ranks.

Well done Jay.

Especially when the bowl on the correct side....unlike their father!!!!

Yay Jay!

Better read up on "moving your feet" so you can keep coaching him to use his right hand, Brenton!

FANTASTIC WORK JAY.

Congrats to the both of you. Hope to see more high scores soon.

Well done Jay, Brenton l hope you can teach him how NOT to winge about lanes, being a wrong hander. HA HA HA !!!

Brenton,

I was there and watching Jay bowl, it was absolutely phenomenal. The whole crowd was behnd and cheering him on. He never looked like missing.

When he finished, he came off the lane and said "my mum will be so proud of me". Maybe she's a righty?

Well done to Jay, a great score at such a yound age.

Cheers
Des

I am amazed the little tacker did come a say anything Last Tuesday night. I usually get all the high scores as I walk thru the door.

Well done little man - At least he uses his correct hand

Nice work Jay!

 

[granto]

Keep up the great bowling Jay, well done!

 

[Brenton_Davy]

Yet another update.

Jay had a 182 game. Nothing to write home about with that,EXCEPT it was an all spare game. Most adults can't spare that well!

Don't know of any 12 year olds who have that on their CV.

Nice one son.

 

[Brenton_Davy]

Well, it's finally happened! He has made it to a 200 average (over 36 games)!

13 yrs old and a 200 average....... at that age all I was interested in was keeping the ball on the lane.

Well done mate.

 

[jason_doust]

Well done Jay and well done Brenton!

I suspect the lad is gaining tremendous insight with such a knowledgeable Dad to tap into as required. He's been around top level players for years now and he's obviously a smart young man. (Must be from his Mother!) I look forward to hearing what's next!

next update:

Drafted into the 2013 Tassie Presidents Shield Team.

Nice bit of irony there as his mother is a Tassie native.

Well done again buddy.
