VA Peninsula Bowling - Week 7 Results, Final Four, & More Info

A bunch of wild turkeys. 

Round one of the playoffs was last night, and I got to say, everyone brought their "A" games. Just at a glance, the scores looked higher than normal. With a trip to the final four at stake, CLUBWAKA bowlers were focused on knocking those pins down.

FINAL FOUR IS SET

Ultimately, the first round went as expected with all four top seeds advancing. Next week, Blurred Lanes, Evil Empire, Balls & Splits, and the Fresh Prince will compete in a four-way bowl off to determine the Winter 16-17 championship! Everyone will bowl two games as usual. The top four scores from each game will be added together to determine the teams total. The team with the most combined pins will be victorious.

*I believe this is the highest individual game score of the season As Theo Gardner pointed out on Facebook, Matt Crawford bowled a 267 in week 1. This is what I get for not looking it up. 

**Welcome home, Dwight!

***Good thing there wasn't some sort of Samson type deal with his now shaven beard. Brad's still got his powers, apparently. 

****Top female score of the season

Although there are only four teams eligible for the trophy, we have a full slate of games scheduled for Monday including some matchups that did not happen in the regular season.

LEAGUE PHOTO

Prior to the games kicking off, we're going to gather around for a league-wide photo to commemorate the finale of a fantastic first season. Also, it'll give us a better pic for our Facebook group banner, which is kind of dull. So, make sure you get to the lanes a few minutes early so we can organize the pic without too much delay.

SPRING SEASON

As always, a reminder that registration is open for our Spring 2017 season. We're moving to Sunday evenings to accommodate up to 20 teams. We still have some space available, so join us! Individuals and small groups are welcome. The new season starts on 2/26, so it's right around the corner! Register at http://www.kickball.com/season/vapeninsulabowlingspring2017.

GLOW BOWLING MEETUP

To bridge the gap between the winter and spring seasons, Sparetimes is hosting a Friday night Glow Bowl meetup. For only $15, you'll get unlimited bowling including shoe rentals. You don't have to be a member of the league to participate, so feel free to invite some friends. Please be sure to RSVP on the Facebook invite though so we can ensure we have enough lanes reserved.

Thank you all for a really awesome season to this point. Looking forward to one more Monday night with you all!
