Let's take a look at the 22 teams that will be rolling with CLUBWAKA this winter:
The Bowling Stones - 802
Anthony, Lauren, Sam, Taylar, Jon, Abigail, Summer |
"My team is made up of two of my brothers, a best friend from high school her boyfriend, my roommate and our good friend we met while living in Virginia Beach. We’re new to this, so we were very thankful for other teams’ help tonight! We’re looking forward to an excellent and exciting season!" - Abigail
IBS (Irritable Bowl Syndrome) - 807
Troy, Kristen, John, Amber, Linda, David |
"John and myself (good friends/old coworkers since 2007) are returning players from Tuckin’ Fenpin! This season we welcome new players: John’s wife Amber, his mom Linda, his dad David and then our free agent Troy! We are excited to play and continue to improve as well as have fun with all of you lovely people!" - Kristen
Pin Bowl Wizards - 891
Tony, Sheila, John, Kimmie, Kathy, Chris |
"We are Pin Bowl Wizards, formerly know as Bully Balls from the summer league. We are three married couples who have been friends forever and have Poquoson roots. Chris Brauer and I are former police officers...I retired back in 2015 after 25 years, John Harrison (my hubby) is still a police officer with Hampton (in his 28th year) and Sheila Firth Logan, Tony Logan and Kathy Evans Brauer are our trouble makers! Just kidding! We may not be the best bowlers but we have the best time together and love bowling teams that like to have fun...like the Gutter Sluts and Bye Polar Bowlers! We hope everyone has a fantastic Winter bowling season!" - Kimmie
No Hoppers - 911
Brad, Erica, Megan, Joey, Courtney, Henry |

Slightly Above Average - 956
Andrew, Chrissy, Phil, Jenn, Adam (not pictured: Lauren) |
"Slightly Above Average! FKA Livin' on a Spare. We changed our name because we always seem to fall riiiight above the middle team at playoff time. Two of us are married, two of us are dating, two of us are siblings, two of us know each other from William & Mary's MBA program, four of us worked together at Ferguson Enterprises, and four of us went to CNU. All of us are friends. And of course, we have the good luck charm of Player 7!" - Jenn

Returning are the reigning Cup Trophy winners from Fall 2019! They start the Winter 2020 season where they ended - at the top of the bottom half of teams. Will they be able to hold that spot and reclaim the trophy for back-to-back victories or are they looking to upgrade their hardware?

Jive A$$ Turkeys - 1138
Rebecca, Blake, Jason, Chris, Jose (not bowling winter), Vikki (not pictured: CJ) |
Reigning Domestic Beer Trophy winners from Fall 2019 (pictured) are back and looking for a repeat. They are even throwing out a little trash talk to start the season: "Jive ass turkeys = gold medal! Y'all can accept silver if you'd like... sorry for your loss hahahahaha. #wewin #youlose" - Blake... those are some big words for a team currently in seventh place! Though they are also looking for some additional fun... and possible funds: "Anyone that wants to gamble with us is welcome. We draw cards per strikes. $5 per game" - Jason
Mine's In The Gutter - 1139
Zach, Teddy, Brian, Gma, Jeff, Trish, Shelley |
"Mine's in the Gutter! 2 are married and produced a third member. One is known as Gma to many. Our newest member has played waka with us for years and two have become like family to us. We love our team and are so happy to have Brian Neal joining us this season!!!!!" - Trish
Obviously Not Golfers - 1172
Dottie, Brent Jr, Brent Sr, Kristen, Joseph, Julian. |
"Dottie and I formed this team in the summer of 2017 as way to get out of the house a spend a few hours away from our kid. I actually hated bowling kind of because it went against one of my core principals, (Anything you’re not immediately good at is stupid and not worth your time). Despite my inability to knock all of the pins down, I had so much fun with the people and have fallen in love with the atmosphere. Now, I look forward to “date night” on Sundays at the bowling alley.
Kristen has been with us since the first season. I first started the team with a post on Facebook asking for bowlers to fill our roster. I was very surprised that arguably the best women’s bowler in the league immediately threw her hand up. We didn’t know her that well at the time but she’s become a very close friend. Plus she’s carried us to two championships.Joe joined the team later when we picked up a free agent. He’s one of funniest characters in the league and an excellent dancer. Dislikes include the damn 5 pin.
In 2018, we added Brent Wentworth, Sr to help add some veteran leadership and experience to the squad. At the time he was a CLUBWAKA rookie but I had known him for about 38 years before that. We go way back.
Julian is the newest member of the Non-Golfers, coming on as a free agent last season. When he’s not educating the youth of Hampton High, he’s beating the blind on Sundays. (Wait, that doesn’t sound right)." - Brent Jr.
Framed - 1177
Taryn (not bowling winter), Josue, Dale, Amy, Matthias (not pictured: Brandon, Julie) |
Flame Throwers - 1218
Mike, Chris G, Danielle, Carole, Chris T, Ange |
Eye Candy - 1220
Robin (not bowling winter), Ed, Eric (not bowling winter), Kim, Gary (not bowling winter), Missy (not pictured: Jeremy, Kaige, Mike) |
Kaige, Ed, Kim, Mike, Missy, Jeremy (Winter 2020) |
Eye Candy has had some changes to their roster since Fall 2018 (pictured), however what hasn't changed is their presence near the top of the score board. They remain one of the more dominant and consistent teams in the league. They have struggled to reclaim the trophy since this picture was taken - will this be the season to change that?
Scared Splitless - 1223
Aaron, Louise, Heather, Nathan, Ray, David |
Good luck to everyone this season!
