Hits and Misses

Irene Olson

Hits & Misses Bowling League starts the new fall season Monday, October 1. Bowling begins at 10:30 a.m. with warm-up practice at 10:15 a.m. every Monday morning through mid-April with a short holiday break. Bowling location is at Brunswick Zone Kyrene Lanes in Kyrene Village at 6225 W Chandler Blvd. This is a non-sanctioned league.

Please sign up now, before September 15, so you can be placed on one of the four-member teams. Teams are newly formed each year and are a mix of men and women. Each team begins with equal handicaps, or as closely matched as possible. We welcome new-to-the-area bowlers, as well as those who haven’t bowled for a while and would like to return to the fun, exercise and competition.

Plan to attend the League Meeting on Monday, September 24, at 10:30 a.m. at Kyrene Lanes located at the above address. President Hal Newton will review the rules and regulations, address issues concerning bowling fees, banquet, etc., and answer your questions. Distributions will include the rules and a list of the new teams. Be sure to attend this informative meeting and to greet your new teammates. Bring your bowling ball, as there is usually a short time for free practice bowling following the meeting.

Bowling begins October 1. Beginning promptly at 10:30 a.m., we bowl three games and are usually finished by 12:45 p.m. We’re hoping to see all of you back from last year and wish to welcome the newcomers, single or a couple. In this league, couples are not permitted to bowl on the same team. Each team is required to have at least one woman and one man. This is a social league where it’s fun to meet your Sun Lakes neighbor and make new friendships.

Sign up now by calling Secretary Ruth Andersen at 480-760-5554. She will answer your questions and provide the information you request. See you at Kyrene Lanes and Good Bowling!
