A little of track of the original question but are the variable and sometimes mandatory tournament patterns killing off the tournaments themselves?
There are factors such as cost of travel etc but these will only generally affect interstate travellers who you need but mostly will still come...
My understanding of the sponsorship dollars from AMF was that it was previously spread out amongst all the other tournaments, this was clearly not working with dwindling tournament attendance so they went the other way and chucked it all at one tournament that they are hoping will attract the...
It seems like a case of having 1 quality event with good participation and marketability vs x amount of events not well attended. Hopefully it spawns some interest and a smaller amount of quality tournaments will come out the other side.
Hopefully they manage to get some of the best and we...
I think a change to a 5 or 6:1 for something like triples would be easy to achieve but just in my opinion you would need to select something pre season and leave it. Many wouldn't notice that much difference and the ones that do won't worry because everyone has established averages etc on the...
Here here Tina,
Congrats to the ladies it was great to see you compete and enjoy yourselves!
The boys had a shocker but seeing the Tassie lads take home the trophy has us inspired to work hard and hook in again next year.

Sad News, John was always willing to offer advice to the younger players he came into contact with via league etc and will be missed by all. Condolences to his family and close friends at this time.
Hi Just wanted to thank the boys from he ACT mens team for an outstanding effort in running third this year we think (not positive) its the second highest finish for the lads since we joined the comp.
Well bowled boys!
Also not to forget the ladies, managers and all the crowd cheering us...
I haven't heard anything was merely asking a question, either way i think its a great thing being done here, in a perfect world all representative teams at every level would be fully funded.
Please note to accomodate people wishing to bowl NSW sports series event the roll offs for the various representative teams will be held the weekend of the 28th and 29th at Tuggeranong.
Entry forms will be released ASAP so keep an eye out.
Cheers
