Honestly you could give out stuff that isnt bowling related and i know i would be happy because guess what....its free why complain! But i mean if you wanna stick with bowling them you could do bowling balls who doesnt want a new bowling ball i mean im cravin a new rapid fire pearl :) but i mean its up to you.

[The KingPin]

Ok so maybe a portable gps?

What else would you like to win?

[bowlr721]

bowling equipment is always a plus lol bags shoes balls accessories stuff like that!

[The KingPin]

Being that we are a new site, of course funds are low, yet with more people here the more we can do as bigger companies might see the interest here and hopefully we can send people to tournaments and such.

Either way, what about a bowling gift certificate like 100 bucks or so to an online bowling shop?

I believe that the online GC would be a great gift.

[bowlr721]

i agree i think that would be a great idea!!!

[The KingPin]

What store do you all like to shop at for online bowling gear?

[bowlr721]

I think you would attract tournament youth bowlers and their PARENTS if you offer things like hotel stays, tournament entries, gas cards, bowling equipment and apparel. Team entries would be great as well. Some companies donate bowling shirts and include their logo on the sleeve for advertising.

OF COURSE YOU WOULD WANT TO SPEAK WITH THE USBC TO MAKE SURE THE PRIZES YOU DISTRIBUTE ARE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE RULES PERTAINING TO YOUTHS. (in addition you can request information about and post any waivers needed to assure you are in compliance.)

You should try and speak with the coordinators of National scholarship Youth Tournaments.

If you need contact info let me know. I'm sure these guys would gladly include your companies information on their monthly flyers / emails and tournament entries. Should be a Win ~ Win situation...
