I talked to Stars and Strikes Management at length over the last couple of days. They have stated that if there is any interest in maybe a short half season Tuesday night league, not necessarily a money league, but something to generate interest in bowling, they will help us get it off the ground. I'd like to get maybe 10-12 teams going.
We opened the Thursday night league last night, and I have to admit, it was fun, the concerns about the noise, the windows, and other things seemed to be satisfied. We had a pretty decent shot out, and I although it took me the first games to finally figure it out, once i did, it became easy. The league was capped at 20 teams, but the teams that were turned away, were asked to join the Wednesday league and perhaps can be persuaded to join a Tuesday league instead.
We don't have to go $25.00 for this league, it can be $20. Perhaps the sponsorship money we secured for the Monday league is still available for this league if we can get it off the ground. Along with that, we will have the strike pots, 50/50 and brackets available all run by the house.
If there is any interest, let me know. If you have any ideas, I'd like to hear them.
The center is here. It is not going away, and it is a great environment. And with the right shot out, the scores will be high.
Since we aren't competing with anyone in an existing league, perhaps we can get the word out and give it shot. If we can't get it started in this half, we will make another run at it for the second half of the season.
Let me know your thoughts.
