Largest summer league
« on: June 05, 2008, 12:02:06 AM »
I was just wondering what the largest summer league you have bowled in was.  The largest I had been in before was about 8 teams or so, then I join a monday night league and there are 17 teams.  I was rather impressed with the turnout considering some of the other nights only have 5 teams or so.

Biggest summer league I was in probably was the PBA Experience league last year, for the first week.  We had over 115 people at the start.  Of course that dwindled to about 75 people after just a few weeks when people realized their fragile little egos would be crushed when they couldn't hook the whole lane and score 230s and 240s at will.    (In fact, we only have about 35 people bowling in it this year because so many people weren't happy with how difficult the league was)

My Wednesday night 2nd shift league has 20 teams of 4s which is down from the usual 24 teams.  

My Monday Sport league is 14 teams of trios.  It may have been able to get a little larger, but the house puts the shot out on 18 lanes and 4 are reserved for the kids going to Junior Gold.  They get to come down and practice for $2/game and a Silver Coach also works with them, an awesome experience for the kids.

In 2007, I bowled in a 32-team mixed summer league, four person format.

At Strike Zone is Vegas there is a 48 team 4 person summer league broke down into 2 divisions. Personally that place sucks and my old house has been totally remodeled and reopens July 1st, so Wild Fire lanes here we come again.
