Through participation in TNBA
leagues throughout the Metropolitan area, juniors are given an opportunity
to compete in regional tournaments. Winners of the regioinal tournament advance
to the national level for the annual championship during TNBA week.
Junior
Program and Scholarship Program (JP&SP) promotes the game of tenpins
to our youth. Membership is offered to all youth. Volunteer coaches teach
the bowling skills that are essential for full enjoyment and successful
competition.
Coaches also
help bowlers develop good team spirit, a sense of fair play, respect for
others, leadership, responsibility and honesty.
The Scholarship
Program provides financial assistance for college bound TNBA junior bowlers
or youngsters whose parent(s) are TNBA members. The
scholarships (three for boys and three for girls) are awarded annually
at the National Convention to high school graduates, entering college.
