Leagues in Tampa, FL
« on: March 16, 2010, 04:36:28 AM »
I moved up to tampa about a year ago but have not found a league yet. I was curious if anybody had any suggestions on which center to bowl at. I live near the bucs stadium. I would like to find a house that does not put out the great wall of china. Maybe a PBAx league or another where they change the shot every few weeks. any ideas?

I lived there many years ago. Crown Lanes was the worst for the great wall. I bowled in a couple of other houses that were pretty fair. Tampa Lanes is where I shot my first 800, and the centers first 800 back in the early 80's. Good luck. There are alot of nice people that bowl in Tampa, but also ALOT of jerks!

Seminole has PBAX leagues.  Get out the phone book and start calling.  There are quite a few centers in the Tampa area.

Florida Lanes is suppossed to be really good, my brother used to bowl there in a great mens league, I believe it is called the sportsmen, also....the 2 years I lived up there 1995-1997 I bowled at university bowl, that place is not bad either.

Well if you live near the stadium you''''d go to PinChasers
http://pinchasers.net/

PinChasers West(used to be crown/veterns)on West Hillsborough Ave.
It''''s fair place.
PinChasesr Midtown 4847 North Armenia Avenue

It''''s been a long time since I was at university bowl, last time I was there the lanes awful.I heard one time they put some money in and fix it up some. But didn''''t put in any new lanes.so unless they got some new lanes, It was a AMF house so bewarned check it first.

Florida lanes was ok the last time I was there, but I never bowled any leagues at it.

There also Tampa Lanes on 8105 North Dale Mabry Highway that would be north of the stadium. But I never bowled it.

Check with the guys over on http://www.bowlingboards.com/ forum a lot of Florida bowlers there.
