Of course, none of us can take any real credit...

I recently graduated from high school in Tulsa, OK. We had over 2000 students and rough estimate 300 knew about the bowling team, 8 were on it. I wasn't though, because I work at the house they use and disn't have enough time to practice and such. They had some OK results, but at my school you have to win something big to be noticed. Golf made state, Rugby is 2x state champs, tennis lost in finals, etc...but bowling? What do you mean bowling? I think one of the best things to do is make T-shirts and have the team wear them maybe once a week, it got a lot of attention at my school. I would always wear my AMF shirt on days the team wore their shirts

My high school has been pretty supportive of our bowling team, they provide transportation to our matches and practices if someone needs it. My school seemed more supportive than our coach, who didn't know how to bowl and showed up for practices and matches so he could get paid. He just quit coaching the bowling team, so hopefully we can find another one for next season.

my school doesnt really care about our bowling team =( i mean they provide transportation but thats about it. It kinda sucks, and most the ppl on the team dont really care that much about bowling, im the only person on the team that practices regularly, everyone else has only been bowling about once or twice this summer
