MANAGER’S MEMO / Ray Brothers

November 2010






Ahead: tournaments, tournaments, tournaments


By now, all of you know that we are behind in processing the leagues. We had some difficulty with our computer talking to the computers at Bowling Headquarters in Arlington, Texas. All that has now been solved, and we are working very hard in trying to catch up with all the leagues as soon as possible.

A mixed tournament was held the first two weekends of November at Bowl America Fairfax to benefit the BVL. For those who participated, thank you very much, and I hope more will compete next year. We currently plan to make this tournament an annual event to benefit the veterans that have served our country with honor.

Meanwhile, entry forms for three other events—the Women’s Championship Tournament, the Open Championship Tournament, and the Youth Championship Tournament—will be in your center soon. These tournaments are conducted for the members by the association, so please pick up an entry form and join in the fun.

We will try something different this year by holding the women’s tournament and the open tournament at the same centers during the same time period. The big difference is that the women will be bowling team in one center and singles and doubles in another center. The team events will be held at AMF Annandale, and the singles and doubles will be held at AMF Capital Plaza. The Youth Championship Tournament will be held at Bowl America Woodbridge. For further information on the tournaments, just contact the association office, and we will steer you in the right direction to get answers to your questions and concerns.

This is the first digital issue of BOWL Magazine. By publishing the magazine online, many issues can be addressed in a very short time. If you have concerns that every member could benefit from, they can be disseminated very quickly.

If you have any questions regarding rules, please contact the office, and we will answer them as well as publish them on this site.
