HOW MANY BOWLERS BOWL WITH THIR SON'S or DAUGHTERS ON LEAGUE??
Well this will be a first, starting next week! Bowling with my two Newbie to bowling sons! Looking forward to it very much! Are they good enough, having my DNA flowing through their blood to give the old man a run for his money??
How many of you bowl with either your son's or daughter's, ON A LEAGUE, and for how long, any great stories to share about the experience? I am REALLY LOOKING FORWARD to bowling with Pete, and Mike!! They are newbie's but show great potential!!
ON LEAGUE, ever won First place, with your Son's/daughters, as teammates?

Our Monday league is pretty much a "fun" league. Not much money and the league average is 170-180. It will be 25 years before he can bowl my Friday Morning league (55 and over(

A number of years ago I bowled with my daughter on a 1/2 year league on Sunday mornings. Was my daughter, my best friend, his daughter and myself. We won the league as my best friend is a 210+ bowler and I was averaging 190+ and our daughters got progressively better as the season went on. We had a blast.
Two Fathers and Two daughters bonding! (:)
Something you will NEVER forget!!! Don't bowl with them anymore??? Did they give trophies for your win, or money! I think a league like that it would be cool, to have a trophy with FIRST PLACE on it along with your daughters and friends names! Bowling is not about money to me,,, its about the sport, and the memories I am creating with family, and good friends!! Something to look back on as time moves on by, THAT WAS SPECIAL!! (
When I FIRST STARTED bowling 4 years ago, the first league and only league I bowled on was a seniors league! Iceman was 61 then! I then bowled again the following year, it was unsanctioned, and a lot of fun! Last year on that league my wife held every category on the achievements, and I held all the categories for the men! I have it framed hanging next to the Fireplace! Doubt that happens very often?
Anyway my health got better and better then I decided to go sanction leagues, and glad I did, or the 300 would not have count... LOL I am going to miss that league, but I am bowling 3 leagues this fall, and 4 would be a bit much!!
I've bowled in a league with my dad for 4 seasons, this will be our 5th. My wife and his girlfriend will be joining us this year, but only as reserves, so I don't know if we'll get to play all 4 together. I'm looking forward to it anyway.
Our team was first place in the "D" division last year and will be playing in the "C" division this year. We've also won a few doubles tournaments (but not as many as we should have
family bowling....does it get any better .....
Sounds like you and your dad are close!! (I've bowled in a league with my dad for 4 seasons, this will be our 5th. My wife and his girlfriend will be joining us this year, but only as reserves, so I don't know if we'll get to play all 4 together. I'm looking forward to it anyway.

No, I don't bowl with them anymore as I had to move to Tampa (from Chicago) due to job issues. My kids still live in the Chicago area so I don't get to see them as often as I like. And it's probably been 30 years since I've been on a league that's given out trophies. Most people want more money and not a trophy.Something you will NEVER forget!!! Don't bowl with them anymore???
