I had my first experience coaching a team in the USA Bowling New England Regional. Saturday was 8 games of qualifying. The games were all Baker format with 4 person teams with substitutions allowed at any time in the game. Once a player comes out they may not bowl until the next game.

Today was double elimination match play with each match being two out of three games

I'm really proud of the team, they won 5 games yesterday to earn the third seed. While we did get eliminated in the fourth round, the kids really did keep on fighting to the end. Each of the kids had at least several times when they stepped up under pressure and made a key shot that either won a game or kept us close in a tight game
