14 FCUSBC Youth Bowlers to compete in Junior Gold Championships

This July, 14 youth bowlers from our association will travel to Indianapolis, IN to compete in the Junior Gold Championships.  This is an annual, national scholarship tournament for the top youth bowlers in the United States, where entry to the tournament is earned through qualifying events (not by simply paying an entry fee).  The Junior Gold Championships uses multiple, unannounced “sport shot” oil patterns, over several days, that challenge the bowlers beyond what a “typical house shot” pattern or tournament would.

Below you will find the qualifiers’ names, division, and tournament in which they earned their entry to the national championships:

Alex Evans, U12 Boys – Storm Survivor Tournament

CJ Lloyd, U12 Boys – FCUSBC Scholarship Tournament

John Nunn, U12 Boys – Jacksonville Jr. Bowling Tour
