    tournaments

    Matt, The State Tournament Calender is available at http://www.tenpin.org.au/2008_Calendar_TAS.aspx and it shows no more events planned for remainder of 2008. This excludes any tournaments that individual bowling centres may promote themselves, but I do not know of any myself. The tournament...

    Interstate Baggage

    Max, Well done mate on thinking "out side of the square". I am sure this suggestion will be influential in people making the decision to go to tournaments etc. That can only be good for the sport. Previously the cost of getting gear from point A to B would have been a deterrent and so...

    Age, Ave

    I am 63 years old, I started bowling in 1971 which would make it 38 years, except I did not bowl between 1988 - 1999 (11 years), so that makes 27 years actually competing in league etc. Into the second season in 2 leagues at Moonah, current averages are by far the best for this veteren...

    Andrew Phillips 300

    Congratulations to my son on a great 300 tonight. Today was also Andrew's grandfather's funeral and as the last shot struck Andrew pointed to the heaven's and said "That one is for you Pop!" It was great to be along side you and enjoy the moment, the whole family sends their congratulations.

    daniel mckinley......1st 300 game

    Heartiest congratulations to you Daniel. I saw your 300 from the adjoining pair and you kept your composure extremely well. All the strikes I saw were solid. Your bowling in recent times has been exceptional and following your 299 a few weeks ago it is a just reward to go that one extra...

    Pros and cons of wrist guards

    Personally I think you are better off without them as they tend to soften the feel of the ball on the hand. I use a wrist guard but I wished I didn't. I have an RSI type problem and if I bowl without one I am unable to maintain the ball position through to release without sudden pain causing me...

    The decline of bowling in Vic..

    Why should a bowling proprietor not be prepared to sponsor one of his staff to obtain a coaching qualification? This is one of the things that really needs to be pushed in my view. The bowling industry has many stake holders including those that run bowling centres as their busniess and from...

    Question time...

    In my view records can only stand if they are bowled against proper opposition, a score would not count as a record if that score was bowled in isolation.

    Easy question. How many leagues bowl in your centre?

    As a comparison when posting how many leagues you have can you please also give the number of lanes in your centre? Cheers

    Questions and answers from the TBAL AGM

    I had the pleasure of meeting Gillian yesterday while she was in Hobart. I am not going to go into detail on the plans that TBA have already developed as that is not my job and nor could I do it justice. Gillian is much better skilled to do that. But what I can say is that Gillian was...

    Questions and answers from the TBAL AGM

    I agree completely with this view. This forum is the place to put your views and opinions, however, if you have a specific issue or problem relating to the TBA then this is not the place, it should be directed to the TBA for a response.

    Quick poll on TBA sanction card cost

    Hi Lawrie, Mate, that is the most commonsense view I have read on this thread. The old saying, you pay peanuts and you get monkeys is very true in the case of tenpin bowling. Give the new board & CEO something tangible to work with and then complain after if they don't deliver. Up...

    Rachuig Final Results

    At the risk of Andrew again suggesting I must be bored at work ;) I have (in my lunch hour :rolleyes:) added a bit more analysis plus corrected an error in Annie's score that I had carried over from Hobart.
