Bowling News
Most local leagues have for some years been using the wonderful Bowlsnet system to collect results and provide instant updated league tables, player records, team and individual KO competitions. It is great for all teams but did you know that you can create your own Bowlsnet Page which just keeps your playing record for all the leagues that you bowl in?
The example below is my record for the start of the 2021 season and adds every match automatically as the season progresses. As you can see it shows every match played as well as the name of the opponent(s) and teams you faced.
You can't see on this shortened example but at the foot of the onscreen report it totals up all your wins, losses and total point aggregates. It is a wonderful personal record that enables you to see how many consecutive matches you have won or lost across all the leagues you bowl in. You can quickly set up your own Bowlsnet Page by following the instructions below.
Here is how to set up your own Bowlsnet Page.
