Hi, I'm just about to move to Brisbane and am looking for a league to bowl in. Please count me in! What date is it starting? Jo Hine

Hi Sue, any chance of getting a list of names for the graded event on Saturday morning too? Thanks - Jo :thmbup:

Hi Could you please put Jo Hine in B squad, graded division. Thanks!

OK - in case anyone is mistaken, there is plenty of team spirit in the Victorian WDV team! Can people please stop implying that there is no team spirit. We have all made the commitment to be part of the team, but we all have busy lives with work and family to fit in as well. Yes, it is...

Not sure how many people actually know this, but Ronald is now in the team due to someone having to withdraw. So there were actually 2 members of the men's team at the fundraiser.

I'm a straight bowler with a high 160/low 170 average and no intention of changing my style of bowling. I admit that I do hit on the nose and get strikes (and laugh these off with others at how lucky I was), but I get my fair share of splits too! A positive attitude is definitely the way to...

My husband and I have stayed at the Victoria House Motor Inn a couple of times when we've had to bowl at Mooroolbark. It's a cross between a motel and a B&B - very nice. They are listed with the RACV. They have a website you can check out - www.vichouse.com.au. Takes 5-10 minutes to get there.

Gunther Each time I have tried out for WDV, I have never had my sanction card as it had not arrived in time; BUT I did pay my sanction fees at the start of the year and had the signed stub from the sanction card (signed by my league secretary) to prove that I had paid my fees if I was...

The WDV form is for 2005, not 2006. Have emailed TBA to let them know and hopefully the updated form will be published soon.

I accept that it would be for scratch teams only, but if total selection is how state teams are to be chosen, then what happens to De Veer being a stepping stone for bowlers to aim for Rachuig? Would selectors keep an eye on other state teams (not only WDV) or would those wanting to bowl...

I don't agree with total selection - both my husband and I would have missed out on the great experience of being members of WDV teams. The same people would bowl against each other year in year out (though it would be good for these people to be able to catch up on a regular basis) but you...

It was great to have 3 Victorians in the top 4 women and men!!! Well bowled everyone! :D

What a week!!! I'd like to say thanks to everyone for their help and support! :D This was my first WDV as a bowler, and I had a great time! Looking forward to 2006 in Tasmania!!! Go Vics!!!

Hey Gary, it was mentioned at the last training session that it might be a good idea for those who had been in the team before to take their old shirts, so pack your old shirts!!! At least you've got them - I don't! Though I do now have a VIC skirt!!! (no rude comments please! ;) ) FYI -...

11 in a row starting with a 6 spare for a 290 game. This happened at Melton and I was using a 12lb plastic ball!!! Anything is possible!!! :D

Spanner, appreciate you doing the odds for the ladies - though I am disappointed that VIC is only at 5/1. But then again, it probably doesn't pay to go in as favourites! :) Looking forward to going to Illawarra for my first WDV and making new friends.

Would love to see your odds anyway, Spanner, sexist comments included! (or is that asking for trouble???) :rolleyes:

Well, you're going to have to work REALLY hard for it, cos we're definitely going for back-to-back!!! :D Looking forward to bowling in my first WDV!!!

I agree. Besides, if I did the odds I'd have to make Victoria the favourites - of course!!! lol VIC ladies have plenty of experience with two new faces (including myself). Both teams are looking for wins and making it back-to-back for Victoria!!!

What about odds for the women's teams? It's not all about the guys!!!
