State Training Squad

Strike-it Bowling

For Everything Bowling
Announcement: VicTenpins – State Training Squad Selection Policy

In anticipation of Tenpin Bowling Australia (TBA) taking a different view of how National Training Squads should be assembled, VicTenpins wishes to announce the formation of State-based Training Squads. The Training Squads will cover the following classifications – Juniors, Youth, Adult and Seniors.

The purpose of this policy is to ensure that athletes of the highest calibre and those with long term potential are selected into a training squad from which state teams for domestic competitions are ultimately chosen. The primary focus beyond that is long-term athlete development so that athletes will be better prepared for representative duties at National and International level.

In recognition of our existing talent pool, VicTenpins will grant automatic inclusion into the respective State Training Squads as follows:
• Athletes who are currently in the National Team in any division.
• Athletes who have represented the state in President Shield, Youth Team Challenge, Rachuig, Seniors Challenge or ATBSO Open Division in the current or proceeding year.
• The top 15 ranked athletes in the state, based off the TBA national ranking system at the time of nomination, in any divisions

Reference is made to the attached formal policy document, the State-based Training Squad Pathway, and the bowler nomination form. Dates for in-centre sign-on days will be advertised on www.victenpins.com.au . For further information, please contact Jason Taafe on 0433 160 509.
