    Why is everyone so depressingly agreeable?

    Don't know Rob.....a bigger question would be how will the Centres recoup their money if they elect to pay the Lane levy lump sum ? Its been suggested that at the start of the year they bill the bowlers the approximate membership fee based on previous years, but what if the bowlers refuse to...

    Why is everyone so depressingly agreeable?

    I think option 2 is unworkable. An increase of .25 cents a game a year (and this is every year) plus say .10 cents for increased centre running costs would raise prices to the extent that the average bowler will in all probability either drop one of his leagues, or else look for the nearest...

    Why is everyone so depressingly agreeable?

    There will be something to get excited about shortly when TBAs latest letter to the proprietors hits the mainstream bodies..... Don't ask me, ask your local Centre proprietor........ Actually, excited might not be the right word...........

    2014 Nationals

    Before any of the above is even considered, TBA needs to address its main problem which is the ever shrinking membership base. This problem will continue until such time as the governing body admits to its mistake in de-regulating membership and takes a stance over this matter. To do this it...

    2014 Nationals

    The prerequisites are a set of conditions required by the organising body. These are usually specified in the tender form that is sent out. They usually stipulate a minimum number of lanes and certain other requirements which may be laid down, for instance use of a tournament room, use of an...

    Another Bowl hits the dust????

    I never read this thread which is nearly 10 years old.... The info sounds very familiar though. I stopped bowling there when Grand Prix League started to decline, after that I only had contact trying to persuade management to participate in Regional events and To pass on information regarding...

    2014 Nationals

    Actually you're not alone in your thinking. Queensland has been offered a Centre to take over and run as a State controlled operation. This applied to the business but not the real estate. The Centre is well run by a very professional owner and reasonably located. I believe the offer is still...

    Another Bowl hits the dust????

    Don't know about the auction...... I'd love to see it re-opened under professional management. Most of us on the Gold Coast bowled there at one time or another. But I guess you can't re-create the past, most of the league bowlers relocated to either Tweed, Robina or Ashmore. Personally I believe...

    24 balls ?

    Guys relax, you don’t need to come rushing to the rescue, and I’m not attacking anyone. I know the person concerned, and I know exactly how good a bowler that person is. And FWIW there have been other recent illustrations on FB of multiple bowling ball ownership. I was simply trying to...

    24 balls ?

    Just picked up a Facebook Post with a pic of 24 balls all belonging to the one young bowler. Have to wonder if technique forms any part of the arsenal these days or do we just buy technique from the pro shop?

    Meads is on the agenda for Mondays Board meeting. Just thought I'd give you a heads up. His conduct at the Border Runners event at Robina was disgraceful. I don't know what the board will suggest but several of us think it is high time he was severely disciplined. If you have any thoughts or...
