    What area in Florida are you in, tracy? We couldn't find a Sunday night league that wasn't major/minor or pretty much anything on Saturday.

    Interesting responses. Just for clarification, I have heard that bowling centers close up north. Not sure where, and if all close or just some.

    I may look into a sport league for the summer. Have to check around me for some.

    The Tampa/St.Pete area is a hotbed of bowling and my wife and I travel there periodically. We have friends in the area that we visit and bowl with. I have to say that of the 3 or 4 centers we've been to in the area we liked Dunedin lanes the best.

    I plan on bowling a Sunday night league this summer. I don't have a team though so I'm going to just have to sign up and see if someone will take me, lol.

    I live "up north", it's mostly the smaller alley's (12-16 lanes) out in the rural areas that close for the summer (roughly late June to early August). Not enough business to justify staying open, the lanes and the machines need to be reconditioned anyway and the smaller places usually only have one guy (the manager) doing everything.

    I'm going to bowl in a sport shot summer league (first times for both) this year.
