Youth Bowling in Indianapolis

Thursday, October 20, 2011 by Susie Brehob
Greetings from Western Bowl bowling center in Indianapolis!  It's been a long time since I blogged but I wanted to share a good story about youth bowling.

During the Month of October we held two different youth bowling tournaments.  We hosted the annual Western Shoot-Out Collegiate Tournament and our first ever High School Pre Season Tournament.

They were vastly different in the number of teams who participated.  The collegiate bowling tournament had 63 teams (40 mens and 23 womens) from Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Tennessee and Illinois and the tournament was held over 2 days.

Our High School Bowling Tournament had only 4 teams (3 boys/1 girls) and was held on a Saturday afternoon. 

The amazing part of this is that there was the same enthusiasm, competition and team work in both tournaments.  The kids who competed in the high school tournament bowled as if there were 60 teams.  The coaches and bowlers didn't let the fact that there was so few teams bowling ruin their experience.  They were here to bowl!

The boys team from Brownsburg High School which consisted of both boys and girls bowlers
won the tournament and received a team trophy and medals for the coach and all the bowlers.

If you think the sport of bowling isn't competitive or exciting you need to come out and watch these kids bowl.

Indiana High School bowling competition is held in one of the area bowling centers each week starting in November.  These bowlers are representing their schools just like a basketball, baseball or football team does.  Find out where your favorite school (or your Alma mater) bowls and root them on.  You won't be disappointed in the experience!
