Times -Advocate, May 1, 1991 Page 21 Masters Bowlers Association organizes six tournaments By Ron •Davin ZURICH - In 1964, a tiny acorn, called the Master Bowlers Associa- lion of Ontario was planted. With careful nurturing over the ensuing years, this acorn has grown into a mighty oak tree, branching out in several diffet directions. ' The Master Bowlers Association (M.B.A.) established and has main- tained a professional dress code. The M.B.A. organized a provin- cial tour of six tournaments from London to Ottawa and Sudbury to Hamilton for Ontario's elite bowl- ers. Then the M.B.A. formed a new concept Teaching Division to help volunteer Youth Bowling Council (Y.B.C.) coaches in teaching girls and boys how to enjoy and excel in the sport of 5 pin bowling. From that success the M.B.A. or- Iganized the Master -Bantam and Master -Junior tournaments, when an M.B.A. member bowls with a Y.B.C. girl of boy as a team. In 1978, the M.B.A. put together the first ever Technical seminar in Lon- don, bringing in some of London's best Y.B.C. coaches and instruc- tors. It was to be the start of a new era in the sport of 5 pin bowling as more and more Y.B.C. volunteers attended M.B.A. instruction and coaching seminar all across the province. Today every 5 pin centre across Canada has several fully certified National Level One coaches teach- ing in their organized Y.B.C. leagues. This includes all Bluewater 5 Pin Association centres. Locally, the Zurich 5 Pin Associ- ation is providing fully certified Level One and some Level Two Na- tional coaches for Town and Coun- try Lanes Y.B.C. leagues. Two of these coaches, Patrician Palen and Ron Dann, coached Town and Country's girls team and boys team respectively in the Bluewater Asso- ciation Y.B.C. Ontario Combo zone finals Sunday at Meaford. In this unique format, each team has one bantam, one junior and one senior age bowler.
