Well we're about to 15 entries so far. The event will go ahead, and I'll be giving $500 to first even if only 10 turn up! Spread the word and let's try and get some numbers!

Thoughts go out to the guy's family. A tragic loss. Also a timely reminder to all you other techs out there: Lock Out Tag Out really does safe lives. Be aware of your surroundings and avoid wearing loose clothing (or in the tragic case here, a hoodie).

As you may or may not be aware, this will be the last VSS event for me. I would like to thank Tonx for starting it all, Jane for helping with organisation and sponsors as well as all the centres, sponsors and bowlers who have helped support the series over the past 5 years. It's been a lot of...

Wiley: Current entry level rate is just over $21/hr. Add payroll taxes and super and it's more like $26. Utilities run at close to $10k a month for many centers and we haven't even touched on stock/parts/rent/insurance. Sure, empty lanes are the most expensive thing, and offering cheap games...

Willey: You want $5 or less game rates? Fine, just convince the government to reduce wages and convince utility companies to stop increasing rates. The rise in prices has nothing to do with a grab for money and everything to do with the fact entry level casual rates are almost double what they...

Congratulations to Paul White on winning Event 5! Paul was our top qualifier and defeated 2nd seed Paul Trotter in the 2 game final 402-344. Match 1 saw Jason Strawbridge strike out the 10th frame (213) and defeat Adam Hayes (198) in 5th and Alan Nottman (192) in 6th Match 2 again came down to...

We have run 8 pins a game for females in the Victorian Sports Series for the last 4 years. During that time it has almost never been the case that a female bowler wins based on having the extra 8 pins. The "normal" trend is that while the extra pins do effect the standings, it's only usually 2...
