From The Centre Manager : Jessica Grant

Hello to all, and welcome to Wagga Bowling & Entertainment Centre’s inaugural league newsletter. It has been a fantastic ten months working here and getting to know all of our league bowlers. Special congratulations to all our Mid-Country teams; Mark Lawton on his perfect game of 300 in December, 2014; Grant Lamonte as Centre Champions for scratch, 2014; Sue Bent as Centre Champion for handicap, 2014; and most recently to Ranko Janic on his perfect game of 300 on Thursday 14th May, 2015. We are looking forward to working to bring you more competition opportunities, with four Wagga vs. Wodonga matches, NSW Regional Tour, Centre Championships, and of course the further development and support of the mid-country teams. Additionally we are working hard to put together a new menu for you all to enjoy with the addition of special theme nights and food challenges. We hope you enjoy the league newsletter and a big thank-you to Kim for all her hard work putting it together. Please let us know if there is anything you would like to see featured.

Boss Tips

By Barry Lonsdale TELL US WHAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO HEAR ABOUT OR SEE? 1 - A simple rule of thumb I use is when i pick up What would you like to see at Wagga Bowl? Coaching clinics, ball demonstrations, more tournaments, or 9-no tap nights. You name it and we will do our best to achieve it! Send your feedback to manager@waggabowl.com.au

the ball, my mind is focused only on bowling.

2 - Concerntrate on one thing throughout your shot.

3 - I suggest low-average bowlers concerntrate on rolling the ball over their target. Higher average bowlers may want to “key” on specifics like staying low with good knee bend at the release.
