WELCOME TO FORT WAYNE BOWLING
Fort Wayne USBC BA
The Fort Wayne USBC BA was organized and sanctioned by the
ABC in 1907. The first officers saw an opportunity to
begin an organization supporting the game of ten pins which also
stressed the values of character, tradition, integrity and
heritage. The association has thrived by the hard work and
support of the many volunteers bowlers, and proprietors.
Fort Wayne USBC WBA
The Fort Wayne USBC WBA was organized and sanctioned by WIBC
in 1920. The first officers of the Association believed in
the standards that were set forth by WIBC. An
organization that stood for tradition friendship, fun,
competition, leadership and success. In 2005 the WIBC
joined with ABC to form the USBC (United States Bowling
Congress) and today women bowlers can still proudly call USBC
and Fort Wayne USBC WBA "My Organization".

Two more Champs' reign has
begun for the coming year. Congratulations to both bowlers, they
did a great job and survived the competition.
The
Women's Open Champ, Dana Shaddox, won her title on May
3rd at Lakeside Bowl. The Tournament consisted of 1st night
qualifications with the top 12 returning the second night to
battle each other until the final four were left standing. The
T.V. style finish paired Amanda Miller, Tracey Rowlett, Judi
Tracey and Dana Shaddox in three great matches. Dana beat Judi
Tracey in the final match for the title. Highlights from the
tournament included top qualifier Denise Bruce with a total
series of 942. Also included were high games of 254, 256 by
Denise and Frances "Toni" Sanner 252, Angie Sturm 247, Dana
Shaddox 236, and Sara Kinsey 232 (actual). We hope that several
more ladies will try this unique tournament next year.
The
Masters competition was
second this year but still held the crowd's attention with the
final matches. This year saw the competition grow to 145 bowlers
the first night with the top 32 bowlers returning the second
night. The second evening began with 32 bowlers, then there were
16, then there were 8, then 4, Greg Smith, Terry Rohrer, Mike
Shockey, and Jeffrey Grego. Finally the last match paired Mike
Shockey against Jeffrey Grego. Jeffrey Grego came close to a
perfect game but still ended the competition as the Master's
Champion. Congratuations to all that participated for taking on
the challenge again this year and hope to see you next year.
