12th Annual Association Challenge – Oct 22, 2016

On Saturday Oct 22, 2017, the Brandon, Dauphin and Winnipeg Ten Pin Bowling Associations got together for this year’s installment of the Association Challenge match. It brought together 8 member teams from each association competing over a 5-game handicap series, each team looking to secure bragging rights for the 2016-17 season.

 It was a day that brought some good bowling, high scores and good-natured rivalry. As the last few pins fell and the scores were tallied, the Dauphin Association emerged as the champion, holding off a late surge from the Brandon Association with the Winnipeg Association not able to find a consistent feel for the lanes on the day.

 Below are some highlights from the day and the final standings for the Associations;
