Pennsylvania Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73120 405-755-7575 PIN POINTS TO PONDER By CHUCK PEZZANO I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. One of bowling’s greatest assets, particularly in the youth area is that everyone gets to play in a fully meaningful way. Talk shows devote hours to the subject of how to come up with ways to guarantee that every youngster gets to play. There are all kinds of special rules in most sports aimed at making the kids a bigger part of the scene. Lineups are extended, minutes are assured, mandates often alter general routines and talent, will to win and excel and such silly things as no scoring, no winning and no statistics are kept. In sports and in life there are winners and losers and win or lose there always is learning. Many sports have wisely invested time and money to develop interest in their sports, not to create future stars but to create players, coaches, officials and fans. Bowling must keep its accent on the many junior programs and school activities that range from pre-school through post college. Bowling can be expensive for youngsters and their families and they should not be viewed as merely a possible source of current income, but the life blood of the sport pumping new life forever and ever. Every organization in bowling must fully recognize the fact of bowling life that bowling’s plus with youth is that everyone gets to play, not in a forced way, but in a full participant and competitive status. Junior bowlers can be 11 AM til 2 PM $1.99 PER GAME PER PERSON Shoes Not Included Sunday Twilight 8 PM til 11 PM 3 Hours ALL THE GLO YOU CAN BOWL $9.99 per Person Plus Tax Shoes Included Minimum 4 to a Lane ALL PRICES PLUS TAX classed according to average. Leagues can have two, three or more on a team, and there is always room for one more on some team, and they all get to play and get to know how they do as team members and individuals. Boys learn early that girls can bowl well and aren’t just mere girls but valuable teammates and opponents. Boys and girls get to know each other better in various competitive as well as social situations. Parents almost dread going to a sporting contest when their children are border line players, good enough to play, but not good enough to always play. Parents of organized young league bowlers know their youngsters will be in action, no matter how well they shoot, and that the kids will be in a classified situation that is either competitive or will be by a handicap procedure that makes for some semblance of equality based on current ability. Bowling is fortunate that it is a sport that can handle differences in age, size or ability in one of the fairest ways of any sport. But bowling should be shouting from the rooftops to youngsters and parents and adults and educators that this is the rarest of sports, the sport everyone gets to play for real. Those kids who can start bowling at two or three years of age with bumper bowling can still be bowling decades, and even a century later, and the same fact is evident everyone gets to play. YES FUND GRANTS Continued from Page 18 ing, vibrant part of the sports program.” Barren County High School never has had a bowling program but is ready to jump into the sport that saw a successful debut as part of the state’s athletic program in 2011. More than 80 schools participated in the Kentucky High School Athletic Association’s inaugural bowling season and the KHSAA expects that number to grow to more than 100 schools within the next three years. Student surveys at Barren County High School indicate 25-30 students are interested in joining the bowling program. “We have met with our local bowling center and have an agreement for practice and matches,” Barren County Schools Athletic Director Bob Blair said in his application letter. “Everyone is excited about the possibilities. I have been in contact with local schools that already bowl, and I am beginning to schedule matches.” The High School Grant Program is part of the YES Fund, a joint initiative of the Bowling Proprietors’ Association of America and USBC. The YES Fund initiative is supported by top bowling brands including Brunswick, Columbia 300, Ebonite, 900 Global, Hammer, North Pointe, QubicaAMF, Roto Grip, Storm and Track.

Bowlers Journal to Sponsor PBA Scorpion Championship America’s oldest sports monthly magazine to launch 100th anniversary celebration at WSOB IV SEATTLE — In celebration of its 100th anniversary, Bowlers Journal International magazine - America’s oldest continuouslypublished monthly sports magazine – has been named titled sponsor of the Bowlers Journal PBA Scorpion Championship which will be held during PBA World Series of Bowling IV. "We are thrilled to launch our 100th Anniversary promotion campaign by sponsoring a PBA event," said Luby Publishing President Keith Hamilton. "It’s great to be working with the PBA again." Qualifying and match play in the Bowlers Journal PBA Scorpion Championship will be held on Tuesday, Nov. 6, at South Point Bowling Center in Las Vegas with the four-player stepladder finals set for Sunday, Nov. 11, on the special WSOB lane installation in South Point Exhibition Hall A. The 90-minute finals will air on ESPN on Sunday, Jan. 6, at 1 p.m. ET. The qualifying and match play rounds on Nov. 6 will be webcast live, exclusively on National Bowling Stadium news Nevada bowler finds continued success at Storm National Mixed RENO, Nev. - Renee Steele of Carson City, Nev., finds herself in familiar territory as she fired an 816 series and raced to the top of the standings in three divisions at the Storm National Mixed Championships. Steele, who used the momentum of a perfect game to capture four titles at the 2011 event, rolled games of 258, 269 and 289 to set the pace in the Open Singles Women's Scratch division and received an additional 12 pins of handicap per game to grab the lead in Open Singles Women's Handicap with 852. Angela Maddock of Gilbert, Ariz., previously held the lead in both divisions with 663 and 735, respectively. The right-hander also looks to repeat as the Mixed Singles Women's Scratch champion as she took the top spot with games of 189, 287 and 216 for a 692 total. Melissa Hurst of Decatur, Ill., previously led with 679. Steele claimed the All-Events Women's Scratch and Handicap titles as well as the Mixed Doubles Scratch title with Larry Cooper of Reno, Nev., at the 2011 National Mixed Championships. Steele has competed in many events at the National Bowling Stadium over the years, but found herself in a hurry to make her 2012 appearance. As she rushed from work to make her squad on time, she found the angst of the trip helped to ease her performance on the lanes. "I ended up getting off of work late, so I was rushing to make it on time," said Steele, who also rolled an 816 series during a local event at the Stadium in 2005. "I had used all of my adrenaline to make it here. By the time I started bowling, I was just able to relax and go one frame at a time. I've bowled a lot of tournaments here, so I'm able to feel comfortable and just have a lot of confidence on the lanes. It's just a nice place to bowl." David Cheng of Novato, Calif., and Caleb Nakata of Loomis, Calif., also found success at the Stadium as each rolled a perfect game during competition at the National Mixed Championships. Cheng's 300 game helped him take the lead in All-Events Men's Handicap with a 2,120 score. Jake Odell of Santa Clara, Calif., is currently in second with 2,109. SAN ANTONIO – Chris Galler dominated scoring last week at BRC Thousand Oaks with a superb, award-winning 289-268- 251 = 808 Thursday Early Mixed league outing. Helen Keith’s, Galler’s league mate, banner 238-208-300 = 746 session topped the charts for the ladies.

Bowlers Journal International was founded in 1913 by Dave Luby. It has covered the sport from the days of pinboys through the introduction of automatic scoring, the evolution of televised bowling, leagues, tournaments and all aspects of bowling ball and lane technology. “The BJ” has done more to cover the business, recreational and sport sides of bowling around the world than any other publication under the leadership of Dave Luby, his son Mort, and later his grandson Mort Jr. In 1994, Mort Luby Jr. sold the company to long-time employees Keith Hamilton and Mike Panozzo. Today, it remains bowling’s foremost magazine. The magazine has evolved over the years. It began as “The National Bowlers Journal and Billiard Revue.” In 1988, the company changed its corporate name from National Bowlers Journal, Inc. to Luby Publishing Inc. Currently Bowlers Journal also delivers both consumer and bowling business news and information to an international audience through BowlersJournal.com, The BJI Cyber Report and e-bowler.
