Titans National League “STRIKES” bowling tournament
On Wednesday, April 24th, 2013, the Titans National League held a bowling tournament-fundraiser “STRIKES” at The Planet bowling Entertainment Centre.
The place was buzzing non-stop from 7.30pm till 10pm as 15 teams of four were competing for the main prize – National League Bowling Cup.
Chris McNairney’s “Team Swag” with Aaron Grealish, Ruari Grealish and Meave Garrity took an early lead and was the first team to qualify to finals with 394 points. Second qualification place took “Arsenal FC” with Darragh McNulty, Thomas Togher, Thomas Mann and David Bohan. Titans young but very competitive team scored 381 points! Third qualification place was taken by “Power Ranger” with Joseph Coughlan, Ben Kelly, Jude Langan and Paul Freeman. Guys scored 378 points. Titans star player Andre Tongo had hard time keeping his team in competition. His team “Robert+3” missed a couple of crucial throws and were relegated after 1st round with 370 points!
The final was spectacular! All three teams were neck and neck. Players demonstrated amazing bowling-basketball skills. Yep, we are not mistaken here. No-look strikes, behind the back spares kept the crowd entertained! After tight games “Team Swag” came top and raised National League “STRIKES” Bowling cup! Second place to “Power Ranger” and third “Arsenal FC”.
Best strikers awards went to Joseph Coughlan, Darragh Sweeney and Ben Kelly who were top strikers of the tournament with 4 strikes each!
