Leagues 3 and 4

The kids resumed back into their junior leagues this week.  Rachel now bowls after school on Friday afternoons.  She bowls in a doubles team and plays with the junior coach's grand-daughter.  Monique resumed back into the same teen league she done last year on Saturday mornings.  But her team has a new player as Rachel dropped out of that league at the end of last season.

Monique plans on entering more tournaments this year.  The TQI juniors is still going and now they will have more centres involved each month.  The first match will be played in late February.  Also a new tournament has been introduced.  Not sure on the full details but I do know it happens every two months down the Gold Coast or Northern NSW. All I know there will be playoffs before each match day. At this stage I haven't decided if she should try out this new one but I did tell her junior coach that the TQI is our top priority if the other tournament happens to fall on the same day of play.  And if lucky Monique might get back to the KEN MILLS KUP to compete in on weekend in September.

Tonight I had my bowling league as normal.  We played against the team who was just above us but unfortunately they won most of the points.  We only won the second game but the other two games it was a close call.  Overall we only lost by one pin.  Both myself and my team partner bowled only two games over average.  The highest I bowled tonight was a 170 game. But the best part of my night was winning the fortnightly raffle.

After three weeks of play, my team is currently in 8th position (out of 12 teams).  I know it is way too early into the season to chat about team and individual placings but our standing sheet each week gives us the updates.  Currently our team is in third position overall for a high game scratch. It must of been when we bowled a good game in the first week. Individually I am currently 2nd for high game scratch.  That was last week when I bowled a 164.  I can't remember what the highest game for first placing was but I don't think I have beaten that score as yet.  My team mate is currently first for high series with HCP which she happened to do it in the second week.
