    Why are there no age junior state teams?

    arrggghhhh, but Jason back then the +50's were happy to play against young whipper snappers like yourself in tournaments and what was then the ATBC and now the TBA didn't cater too much for age groups as a whole be they 12 y.o. or 55 y.o.. not to mention the fact that back then junior numbers...

    Why are there no age junior state teams?

    great idea Des and all for it, but to have a Junior Nationals with event structure as it currently is plus add state event for age group becomes logisitically hard when you consider each age group requires 16 lanes to be able to compete against each other. so if you have possibly 10's, 12's...

    Give Credit where it is due.

    seems to be to be the fair thing to me. if your event of whatever type gets a boost to entries because of TB seems only fair and reasonable to look after TB as well. what's that old saying "you scratch my back and i'll scratch yours". Shoey

    just as an extra to this discussion, the Sydney Sunday Telegraph ran this article on 13th January 2008, seems Sachin isn't as well behaved as most would seem to think. in fact the core of experienced Indian players are as bad as each other...

    super school - Sydney 15 -17 February 2008

    for those who think $650 is a bit pricey look at it this way - it takes a lot to put anything like this together, from experience of putting a 4 hour bowling proficiency course together i know first hand what has to be done for something that small putting this together takes so much more...

    Chris Batson's heading overseas again

    i posted this to bring to the attention that one of the greats of our game is basically being forced to go overseas to work in the industry because the system here fails him and others like him (among other things). yet with 136 views and only 3 posts, the concern in a little underwhelming. is...
