Hi all, ( Especially lefty can't carry )
The problem with people standing within "earshot" of people sprouting whatever they want, is they dont actually hear any facts. All they hear is maybe some disgruntled person who for whatever reason wants to put doubts on people.
The committee of the ATBSOV did do their homework.
Eligibility for all Nationally ranked tournaments states:
To be eligible to compete bowlers must reach the age of 50 years by the end of the year which the tournament is bowled. For the record my birth certificate says: Date of birth 24/10/1957.
Which means i turn 50 this year and am eligible.
Whilst on the A.O subject, i would just like to thank the committe for running a very professional tournament. I have been bowling tournaments since 1978 and i feel Wayne Burton, Sue Raphael and all of the committee should be very proud of the way that they conducted the tournament.
Finally on a personal note i would like to thank all of the people in the crowd for their congratulations when at last that 4 pin fell for my 1st 300.
Even Lefty can't carry ( who i bowled it against shook my hand.
Once again i hope this clears everything up.
Regards
Brian King
