This is a request to all College and University students in Ontario to help the
sport of Tenpin bowling become more fully developed in Canada, as it is in
the states.
Recently I had the pleasure of meeting one of the main organizers of the
United States College and University bowling program. He suggested to me that
if enough interested people could be brought together to form a leauge in
Canada, they would be a welcome addition to the US College circuit. Since
tenpin bowling is now an exhibition sport in the 1988 olympics and will be a
full medal sport in 1992 there is a need for Canadians to support this type
of program.
What we are looking for now is to have a few Colleges or Universities set up
some teams for some friendly competition. Tournaments will be formatted as
invitationals, where any school that can put together a team and get to the
tournament site will be welcomed. These teams should be made up of five
bowlers (of any skill level to start with), either all-male, all-female or
mixed. Initially we can run these tournaments with handicap, thus the lower
average bowlers will not be at any disadvantage. If there is enough interest
we can split off into a handicap division and a scratch division.
If you are interested, or you know anyone that might be interested, please
contact me by e-mail. As soon as I have enough response I can set up the
first tournament.
