Next rules... no coughing, no talking, no bright clothing, no animated behaviour, and the final one... no dying on the lanes from boredom.

Going to be hard to enforce during average (not elite) league play. Just like smoking, drinking, eating... where do you draw the line. Keep bowlers happy and coming each week or play hard ball, strictly enforce all rules and lose bowlers. Its rather clear what will happen. Another rule to be...

Virgin seems to be best however if using TBA to book you will need to get to airport a bit earlier than usual as we have experienced problems with checking in as they dont immediately recognise the TBA "special code" for the additional baggage allowance.\ Also with a 4 ball roller I hope you...

Chris Cummins moved to SA in 2008 after being lured here by his now wife who was bowing for SA at the Holt Tournament in WA.

Virgin's deal with TBA silver members is pretty good for travelling with bowling gear but you do need to deal with the travel agent in Qld therefore need to pay extra for the booking fees. Need to give plenty of notice and check your bookings carefully as they have made a couple of mistakes...

Im not good enough for Rachuig but loved bowling the similar head to head format in the old DeVeer days. Tried the new format for the Restricted Team for the first year. Hated it and have not bowled nationals since. Did not have the same atmosphere of bowling against all teams and fighting to...

It was very sad on Sunday finding out that this is no more due to lack of support of the bowlers. Would like to express my thanks to Michael Tran for all his efforts in getting this started and running for the last couple of years and to the bowlers who did support this event. Another one...

Congratulations Daniel you have worked so hard to get to this stage and the results certainly show you have matured and handled the pressure so well. To the rest of the SA Classic Team Ben Barlow, Cassie Eades, Cassie Etherton, Jarrod Hill and Kate Kelly well done to you all. Gold medals...

Well done Daniel you have bowled so well at Holt this year and certainly deserved your spot in the team. Also congratulations to the rest of the Classic Team Ben Barlow, Cassie Eades, Cassie Etherton, Jarrod Hill and Kate Kelly. Gold medals to all and great start to the tournament. Good...

Please add Chris Cummins Thanks to Southside Real Estate for their sponsorship. It is much appreciated.

Chris Cummins (Team WA) and Vicki Hannam(Team SA) met at the first Holt Challenge in 2007 in Perth and were married in Perth last Saturday. Huge congratulations to both of you and best wishes for a long and happy life together. They would like to thank the Darrell Holt organising committee...

Please include an extra for this day Travis Barnard (WA)

Congratulations to everyone who made the teams. Wishing you all the best for the Challenge. Go SA

A registered TBA coach is covered by the TBA coaches policy however if a coach is not TBA registered they should get individual insurance cover to protect both themselves and the player should a claim arise. All a coach is doing is "hiring a lane" for their use. This is where a lot of...

Centre raised our game price by .20c per game. Some leagues also voted to raise/reduce social/prize money. No reduction for second/subsequent leagues. I imagine it would be extremely difficult (if not impossible) to keep track of how many leagues each bowler plays each week and then let...

I know Dion has contacted those who did not get squads requested. Otherwise assume you got what you asked for. More info on TenpinSA website re state champs full squads.

Entry forms Emailed to centres today. Should start appearing on notice boards or counters very shortly. Would expect them to also appear on the Tenpin SA website in the very near future. Entries close 3rd February. NOTE: this is combined Junior and Adult State Championships, Junior...

Have seen a ball with a screw head gouge right around a ball and starting to go around for the second time. was at least 3cm deep all the way and even deeper at the end. Also my sons ball (quite a few years ago now) started to react very strangely on the lanes. When he picked the ball up...

Any idiot (or drunken fools) know that to jump in any large working machine you risk serious injury. If they have so much time/money to waste why not now investigate putting barriers at the end of the arrows to stop people getting down the lane: Suggestions: a) Make barrier just low enough...

Tax office usually treats prize money as non taxable unless it is substantial and it is your part time occupation. Occasional wins would be Ok regardless of the amount. However if you are winning significant amounts regularly or you start receiving appearance money/sponsorships, you may be...

Well done to Chris Cummins and Frosty G for both bowling 300 games last night at Village in the Doubles League. This was the first one for Chris and also his first 800 series. Frosty's was number ? certainly not his first. Fantastic effort by both bowlers and congratulations to a job...

Hooray. Are they also having synthetic approaches or leaving the wood?

Another job well done BMann. A top effort being well recognised from a great bowler. Huge congrats Brenton.

Apparently there is going to be a "big announcement" at the Rachuig dinner by TBA. So many rumours flying around (as normal).
