Convincing a bowling centre to run a league

05-11-2007 4:48pm#1there are two new bowling alleys where i live in drogheda.
Both are less than 6 months old. One of them has that neon vibe in it and it gets very annoyin especially when sweaty men come up behind you after being on the astroturf facilities.
the other is funatasia in the industrial estate.
i cant praise it enough. Natural light, leather couches, a large spectator area. Serious potential for competition bowling. Might email the itba and see if they know about the place because its not listed on their website.
Don't think the owner is keen on running anything official at present. I've spoken to them in that past about Bettystown. I think they want to fininsh off the water park before he does anything serious. Must go up and try out Funtasia Drogheda. It looks fab0

These posts have been copied from another thread and given a new thread title basically because it's something I wanted to suggest or discuss with you guys.
So, sometimes bowling centre owners don't recognise the value of running a league. I know that some places have no interest but sometimes if you ask what the quietest night is and offer to set up and run a league managers can be convinced to give the go ahead.
The way to put it to them is that they have 8 empty lanes every [insert night here] between 8 and 9. Would they like to keep them empty or would they like to run a league where every week those 8 lanes are filled with teams playing against one another and those lanes are making money?
Now league bowlers expcet a reduced lane price for playing in the league. The only way to fill those lanes is to reward the league bowlers who turn up week in and week out by giving them a lower price to play in the league. That way the bowling centre can cover their overheads by ensuring that those lanes are filled at least one week every evening.
Anyone else got any pointers, suggestions, questions? 0 -
