RACHUIG 2006

[crazzzed]

ive had a read of the entry form and it looks good for a big turn out this year. $50 for 10 games (trial 1) is pretty good even if you only wanted some practice.

Practice it's the main event.

I don't think anyway one would be using it as practice as gary said it's one of the big main events in Vic this is the Oppurtunity to bowl for your state if you cut to the top 16 does anyone know of a full list of bowlers if so could you please post it.

I think What crazzzed is getting at with his post is that some people may think they aren't quite at the top level to represnt their state but will still trial in the 'off' chance they bowl well enough to make the top 16. If they don't then it's good 'practice' and 'experiance' on what i would think would be a tough condition.

Crazzzed correct me if I am wrong please

 

[crazzzed]

thats correct. sorry the word 'practice' was probably the wrong term to use. i wasnt trying to put it down or lower the prestige of the tournament at all.

there are so many bowlers out there that dont feel they can compete. however with a cheap entry fee its gives those bowlers the chance to try. hopefully finding that they enjoy it, they can compete and improve their confidence in tournaments. thus over time increasing the numbers in future tournaments because as we know the pressures are completely different to league and house tournaments.

i think its a good thing to encourage more entries. the more that turn out the better chance we have of building victorian bowling up.

hope that is alittle clearer now.

Its alright Brett, most of us knew what you meant.

This is a great chance for all bowlers to have a go. 10 games for $50, is great value. If you dont feel you are good enough, have a go anyway. It allows you to see where you are in comparisson to those who do make the cut.

Also will give you a chance to see what you need to improve over the next 12 months, before the next roll offs.

As after all Victoria has the National Championships in '07. That means Rachuig, De Veer & Seniors, are all here, at Altona.

 

[peter56]

mmmmm i might give it a go as well for the first time dont know why i havnt tried well before this lol

 

[Ev]

A question to those who have previously tried out...

I assume 10 games in a team format spells a long day ahead. Can someone shed some light on roughly how long the 1st qualifying session can go for? 8 hours? Thanks!

 

[edfleminglanes]

This will depend on entries received but you can bet that you will bowl in either a 4 or 5 person format working on 45 -60 minutes per game.

 

[KnuckleHead]

it will take the whole day cause they will be re-oiling after 5 games to have lunch break. Not long now under 2 weeks left.
