Thunder Bay bowlers will be competing at events in British Columbia, Ontario, and Quebec in May.
They will be representing Northern Ontario at the YBC five-pin nationals in Gatineau, Que., and Orleans, Ont. from May 6-8, the YBC 10-pin nationals in Kelowna, B.C. from May 6-8, and the CTF youth nationals in Richmond, B.C. from May 16-19.
“It’s nice to experience that level of competition from across Canada and see how many people have made it that far. All of the other provinces are there and they all have their unique cheers and their unique shirts for the week.” “The people you run into at the events are more like your friends now than instead of just being your competitors,” Graham added.The 10-pin team has been practicing together at Mario’s Bowl for a few weeks now after a provincial qualifier against Northcrest Lanes in Sault Ste. Marie.
Avery Wilson, who has been to three nationals and is in the junior girls’ division, said there’s a major difference in competing on the Canadian stage when compared to the provincial championships.
