Buffaloe Lanes Junior Gold Program

Practice:

In preparation for upcoming tournaments, practice sessions are scheduled with various sport patterns. Certified team coaches, as well as, certified house assistants will be available to help with adjustments. A schedule of practice dates is available on-line. Other days and practice times will be made available as the season progresses. Please click on the calendar to the left to see any practices.

Support:

Each member will receive information about upcoming tournaments and events. This will include pricing, travel and lodging details if needed. Along with this information, the bowler's progress will be tracked and recorded to provide support at the home center. Attention will be given to maximize each bowler's potential qualifying for the USBC National Junior Gold Event.

Fundraising Potential:

To encourage as much participation in the USBC Nationan Junior Gold Event, the team members will be able to utilize the bowling center for 2 fundraising events during the bowling season in order to procure funds for a season ending Buffaloe Lanes Junior Gold Tournament. The details for the fundraising will be left up to the team members, coaches and the center's management.

Coaching and Leadership:

During the season, each team member will have the opportunity to help with the coaching and leadership of the center's youth. Each member will be encouraged to take an active part in the planning and implementing of the youth program. Each team member will be encouraged to help with special workshops given during the year for the benefit of fellow youth members not on the team.

Scholarships:

Various scholarship offers from the local association, state association and national association are available using the SMART Program. Team participation may allow individuals a greater chance of nomination for certain scholarships based on coaches recommendations.
