Summary of 2011 leagues: I bowl in two leagues at Mt Gravatt Lanes, Frank bowls in a team with two ladies on Friday nights at Logan Lanes, my daughters play in a teens league on Saturday mornings at the same centre. And Monique bowls with me in a league on Sunday nights.
We had a busy month playing our favourite sport. Besides bowling in leagues as normal, two members in this family had two tournaments to be played.
Monique started to enter tournaments this year as well. She generally plays in one once a month at different centres. She did very well with her first one in February and came home with two trophies. Her highest game she bowled that day was a 209 game.
Earlier this month both Frank and Monique entered a tournament at Logan Lanes called the Scotch Tournament. It is a double team where both bowlers finish off the other player's frame if the first player of that team didn't get a strike. There were about 21 teams playing that morning which Rachel and I went along and watched them played. Frank and Monique came 11th.
On the first weekend of the school holidays we had an overnighter in Toowoomba. Consider it is now winter in Australia, up there wasn't as cold as I first predicted. Earlier in the week their overnighter temperature was around zero but when we were up there it was around eight degrees overnight. Thank goodness!!
Anyway the main reason why we were up there is because the girls played in an tournament with other kids under 21 who came from other centres in Toowoomba, Logan and Mt Gravatt. Out of 29 players Monique came 16th.
It was Rachel's first time to enter this kind of tournament. The poor girl was pretty tired after playing four games but she said she enjoyed it. She wants to play again next month! I will have to see what their coach says first.
