USBC 2014 Youth Ambassador Joins CBW

by Mary Lynly

AMF Pinole Valley Lanes and recently coordinated the first “Juniors King/Queen of Pinole Tournament.” She carries a current average of 184 and was selected as a Nor-Cal 2013-2014 All Star and sang the National Anthem at their awards event as well as for a Tony Reyes event in 2012. To round it out she was the recipient of the 16th Annual T. Yamazaki & Professor R.M. Fulrath Scholarship. Since age six Irene’s parents would take her sister and her to church early on Sunday mornings. She says she was the first one in the car after loading her six pound yellow Tweety Bird bowling ball. Saying, “For a six-year old, mass was not the most entertaining event but after fulfilling her religious duties she had just one thing in mind: bowling!” The half hour drive from church to bowl was unbearable as she squirmed asking, “Can I be the first one to bowl please?” Three games were the norm but she always pleaded for just one more game as it was her favorite part of the weekend. It was during one of these family bowling outings that she was invited to join a youth league. She says her dad is a bowler and is often her partner in the junior-adult tournaments. Her first coach was the well known Al Louie and since his passing she has worked with Bill Hall and Dan Sasaki. Among her other loves is her dog “Sparky” who she says is cute and very well behaved. In fact, Sparky even accompanies Irene to some of her classes at Dominican University and sits in on her music recitals. This talented, well rounded young lady is a welcome addition to the California Bowling Writers.

She bowls, she sings, she volunteers, she tutors, teaches piano, is a league secretary and more and already has a wall full of honors. The California Bowling Writers welcome Irene Wilson as a Director on our board.

Irene Wilson

We are thrilled to have this talented young lady on our board and look forward to grooming her as a writer while she grooms us about youth activities and opportunities. Irene hails from Pinole, CA and her latest honor being selected as the USBC 2014 Youth Ambassador – a national recognition. She is a student at Dominican University of California - Biology Major, Math Minor, and Music Minor with a GPA of 3.79. She graduated from Saint Mary’s College High School in Berkeley Summa Cum Laude and among her other honors she is a Dean’s List Awardee, Music Scholarship Recipient and Kaiser Permanente Pre-Med Mentor Scholar for Fall 2014-2015. Among her Extra-Curricular Activities she volunteered at Pinole Senior Village this summer and at Kaiser Permanente since 2013. She tutors middle school and high school students at Next Generation Scholars. Irene was the Assistant Choir Director of Sincerity Girls Ensemble and travelled to the Philippines and Ireland and has sung at many social, political and cultural and religious events. Yes! She bowls. She is the league secretary for the Junior Scratch League at

now we are probably going to be relegated to the website that’s challenging to navigate or, Press1, Press 2, to get voice mail. I feel automated to death in trying to consummate any transactions these days and now it appears bowling is headed in that direction too. It’s like you are a prairie dog in a field of wheat trying to survive and the combine is coming and really doesn’t care who is out there. There are pockets of groups that are doing well, most of their method of doing things borders on the way it used to be and they are thriving. Get it? I am in touch with bowling leaders all over the U.S. and the one consolation is that I am not alone in my feelings that bowling as we knew it is rapidly slipping away. I think we all know that things change but the declining numbers can no longer be excused away. The reason people belong to things is motivation and value – we keep hoping it will come but unless you are into that other world of Elite or Youth bowling – there doesn’t seem to be anyone who really cares about communicating with local and state bowling leaders. If you can’t take it by email or website – forget it. Tweeting, Facebook and Blogs have all become gossip columns or filled with information with no need to know and as many of us believed, it has become something to be wary of – be careful what you put on the Internet. Is this really a good way of promoting? The Jury is still out on that one but I feel I am not alone when I say I like to communicate eyeball to eyeball where ideas can be developed across the table from someone and even getting something in a newsletter works for me and lots of others. You can read it, put it down and come back to it again easily. I know, everyone is on their iPhones chit-chatting, passing pictures and doing all kinds of clever things but my guess is they are in danger of becoming social misfits, unable to function or communicate in a social situation. I’m not whining, but I feel I am among a small group of leaders who contributed a lot to bowling, locally, statewide and nationally and we are losing our enthusiasm and love for our favorite sport. It’s too bad our parent organizations don’t see the value in helping their local and state leaders instead of just seeing them as a revenue source because numbers say the revenue source is going away.

It’s not always easy to come up with a topic for my column but it’s hard to escape the uneasy feeling about what’s happening to bowling. Another large group of employees let go at USBC and BPAA for one, and it seems like all the Indians are expendable and only the Chiefs are left. It has been difficult to bond with anyone in the rotating employee pool (the ones who pretty much knew what was going on) and

International task force proposes fast-paced, easy-to-understand scoring format for match play

competition ARLINGTON, Texas (Oct. 23, 2014) – Athletes and bowling fans around the world will be introduced to a proposed new scoring system for competitive bowling during the World Bowling Tour (WBT) Men’s and Women’s Finals in Las Vegas on November 2. The new scoring system for competitive bowling is the result of the work done by an all-star panel of international bowling experts, including World Bowling leaders, athletes, coaches, news media and commercial bowling industry executives. The international task force, with the additional input of (cont.)

(International Task Force cont.) Professional Bowlers Association (PBA) leadership, developed the new system in order to make the sport more attractive and easier to understand for casual bowling fans, the news media and the competitors. The new system, which impacts how the sport is scored as well as the format for competition, will be unveiled during the World Bowling Tour Finals. The singles match play competition will be conducted as follows: 1)A match will involve 12 frames. 2) In each frame, each player will throw one shot. 3) If Player A gets a higher pin count than Player B, he/she will win the frame. 4) If both players strike, the frame will be tied. 5) If neither player strikes, but each has the same pin count, each player will try to convert the spare. If both successfully convert their spares, the frame will be a tie. If one player has a higher pin count than the other after two shots, that player will win the frame. 6) Scoring for the match will reflect who has won the most frames (example, 1 up, 2 up, etc. All-square means the match is tied). 7) At the point one player has won more frames than frames remain (example: 3 up after 10 frames), he/she will be declared the winner. 8) If a match is “all-square” after 12 frames, the tie will be broken.

The purpose of this article is to give you some insight into what takes place at a Baker/Barnes Clinic as well as share some of the participants’ feedback on what the clinic did for their game of bowling. The Clinic both days ran from 11am to 5pm. There were 18 participants each day. The first day took place at Regency Lanes (an all-wood center) and the second day was at AMF Southwest Lanes (an all-synthetic center). Our participants ranged from a youth bowler, to several senior and adult league bowlers, to newer bowlers, to bowlers returning back to bowling after taking years off, to several PBA Regional bowlers. Cost to take this Clinic was $200 per person.

If you REALLY want to help your bowling…

Bette Addington reports: Bakersfield has had the opportunity to have Coach Mark Baker come to our town to do lessons over the past couple of years, but this was a first to get him as well as PBA Superstar, Chris Barnes, to be here to conduct their Baker/Barnes 1-Day Clinic as they made their final roll through some cities in CA before wrapping their clinic tour up. Because the response was so good when the sign-ups were taken for this Clinic back in early 2014, a second day was added for a second group to be able to experience this clinic.

Words to Avoid

WATCH YOUR WORDS AND PHRASES In an article published by Brad Phillips, president of Phillips Media Relations, a media and presentation training firm, and author of "The Media Training Bible: 101 Things You Absolutely, Positively Need to Know Before Your Next Interview," the author offered this random list of words and phrases writers should be avoiding:

1. "Happy Memorial Day": In the United States, Memorial Day is the day we honor the men and women who died while serving in the military. It's a somber day of remembrance and appreciation for many, but for others it's little more than a reason to enjoy a long weekend. "Happy Memorial Day" is not only contradictory (it's like saying "Happy Funeral!"), but disrespectful to anyone mourning a loss.

2. "Utilize": This is one of those rarely necessary, pompous-sounding words. Phillips says he really hates 'utilize,' saying for some reason government and academic writers love [that word] in order to make something sound very official and important ... So he asks: What's wrong with 'use?'"

3. "With all due respect": This is a business professional's way of teeing up before taking a whack. A former staffer for Ted Koppel at "Nightline," said he'd brace himself whenever he started a question to a guest this way. We knew whatever he said next would be devastating.

4. "Nazi": This word should be used to describe the fascist ideology that led to the slaughter of 11 million innocent European Jews, communists, gays and others, including 1 million children. After Jerry Seinfeld labeled a grumpy chef "The Soup Nazi," it seemed like people started using the word to describe almost anything. (For example, "Grammar Nazi"). Phillips' concern is that using the term broadly diminishes its true meaning, and he says he can't imagine how family members who lost loved ones during, or survived, the Holocaust, would greet such a usage of the word.

5. "You know": This verbal filler annoys Brian Chandler, president of Commonwealth Public Relations: "The phrase 'you know' is being used all over the place in interviews and by talk show hosts. It's worse than saying 'um.'" Others agree saying the are appalled when a speaker begins or ends every sentence or comment with, 'you know.'" Caroline Kennedy once used the phrase 138 times during one interview; it made her a target of mockery for the New York tabloids.

6. "At the end of the day": This term is vomit-inducing to many. Urban Dictionary is even blunter, describing it as a "rubbish phrase used by many annoying people." This phrase is unnecessary. Most sentences can stand alone without it.

7. "Finally" and "most importantly": Phillips says every time he hears these words he wonders why the speaker chose to bury the lead. There may be times when it makes sense, but typically the speakers who use these words sequenced their presentations badly.

8. "Think outside the box": Wikipedia says this phrase, thought to have derived "from management consultants in the 1970s and 1980s," usually "refers to novel or creative thinking." Do you see the problem? The phrase is so overused it's not novel or creative. If a management consultant still uses it, it's a sign his thinking may be stale.

9. "She gave 110 percent": This phrase comes up often in the sports world, and is intended to convey that the athlete gave more than she was capable of. That's impossible. If the athlete gave it her all, simply say that.

In 1960 I was a member of the Peninsula WBA and bowling at Camino Bowl in Mountain View. PWBA had been awarded the state tournament and the site committee decided Camino Bowl was their choice to hold the state tournament. Camino was out of the central area of the association and soon after the president of PWBA called and asked if our bowlers at Camino would help. Being naïve, I eagerly said, “Sure!” They told me what they needed, someone in charge of scorekeepers and someone to do publicity. “I could do that,” I said with great enthusiasm. They came, 1296 teams of five. Little did I know that I would be working at this 24/7 - every weekend and then publicity for the local papers, bowling papers and I even managed to get it on AP. The “leaders” of the CWBA seemed aloof and somewhat dictatorial at the time (before I knew they uprooted their lives to live in the tournament city to run the tournament and plan an annual meeting.) I was on the phone continuously looking for scorekeepers for each weekend and getting people to help write out the score sheets with those wonderful yellow pencils and seeing that they were sharpened for the coming weekend. Bowlers came out of the woodwork – people we didn’t even know were bowlers! They kept score and were religious in aiding the cause. When the many weeks were over we decided that PWBA did not give us a fair shake in letting us do all the work with very little thanks. We decided to become more active in the association and it soon became clear we were merely an appendage and would not be an integral part of this association. We felt we had a lot of people here and made the decision to request withdrawal and form our own association. The Women’s International Bowling Congress (WIBC) gave us permission but we had to get 1500 signed signatures for approval. We received the addresses of those bowlers in our area and formed our action group to go – door to door - to get the petitions signed. As I look back on it, it was hysterical. When people came to the door we would start our spiel and when we

were done (with a smile on our face) they would say, “What???” Back into the explanation again. They had never heard of such a thing. Although we actually considered forging a few signatures – we didn’t. It was exhausting but we made it. WIBC Director Agnes Duffy came to moderate the meeting for approval of the withdrawal from both Peninsula and San Jose WBA’s. Peninsula was not happy with us but San Jose wished us well and it was approved! I don’t think we were ready for all we had to do to get our association up and running but we agreed on the Foothill WBA for a name went about getting a design for our logo. I became the charter Secretary and Bea Parkman our Charter President. We were active and grew to 3,000 strong holding good meetings, dances, tournaments and supported a 500 and 600 Club. We were lucky to have good leaders – people who revered our organization and we had successful fundraisers to help delegates get to state and national. We eventually formed a Hall of Fame and took good care of our history. Those were good days and the enthusiasm was infectious never having a problem getting board members. They knew who we were. I became a member of the California WBA in 1968 and went on to the presidency in 1996. As the years went by and membership ebbed and dipped to 328 members, we still sent 12 teams to the state tournament.

Many of those leaders are in the big Bowling Alley in the sky these days and one of our most ardent supporters, Grace Seisbuttel of Sunnyvale, passed away on October 6 and will join them. Grace was always there and part of why Foothill made so many marks in the bowling world over it’s 25 plus years in existence. Good memories and a fond farewell.

It’s Happening New Changes for Central Solano USBC by Emilie Henry

The 2014-2015 bowling season for Central Solano USBC began with a change in leadership and congratulations to new president Prosper “BO” Bousley. Retiring president, Barbara Ewing, after serving four years now becomes chairman of the past presidents committee; an advisory committee made up of the old CSBA and CSWBA presidents, lending support and guidance to the CSUSBC Board of Directors. As president, Barbara was instrumental in the association adopting and supporting The Joy Graham Bowling Program, an Annual Tournament for special needs children. New president Bousley, a 35 year bowler and a member of Central Solano BA before the merger, has served on the CSUSBC board since the merger as a director, 2nd vice president, chairman of the budget, finance and audit committee and high school bowling. “Bo” was also president of Nor Cal Bowling. As new president, along with the board of directors, “BO” is looking forward to guiding the association in a new direction due to USBC changes as well as continuing and implementing the ideas and innovations of retiring President Barbara Ewing. It should make for an interesting and exciting new season.
