Need Som Advice...

Alright, so this is my sophomore year at Robert Morris University in PA. Last year, i go to tryouts, bowl 10 games and not do good at all...highes game is 200. So i decide to pass on the team last year because they determine you on your tryouts. So i would be the last last last sub. I didn't regret my decision, beacuse i don't think i was ready to be traveling around on my weekends for tournament.

So the time has come again. I did a PBA league over the summer and my average went down a considerable ammount from the previous year. Should i try out? It costs about $400 over the course of the year to pay for the team. I still don't think i want to be traveling around on my weekends when i like to be realxing.

I am also very happy doing a tuesday night mens league. I enjoy bowling for fun right now, and actually look forward to tuesday nights to go bowl.

What would you do??

yeah you bowl a pba pattern league your average drops 15 to 20 pins on it plus thats most likely the shots you would be bowling on for the tournaments so if you didnt like it and you dont like traveling and dont want to take bowling serious then i would stay away and have fun bowling your league because if you try out and make it you have to dedicate to it and it sounds like to me you dont want too so happy bowling

Yeah,your average went down. All of ours did. But did you check the conversion chart to see what your sport average converts to for a THS league??? There's most, if not all, of your pins back.:)

[Deadman]

Well i wouldn't say i don't want to take bowling serious, because i really do. If i do bad, i think of things to fix my problem. I definitly take bowling serious

Deadman, follow what your heart is telling you to do. If you feel this is what you really want to do then do it. If you feel you would rather not travel on weekends for tournaments, then your heart is telling you something. Do what you feel is best for yourself and enjoy doing it.

Follow your gut.

Don't sweat the small stuff.

Remember No Regrets. If you think you could regret not taking this experience, then get on over to tryouts. If you don't make it atleast you tried... I remember last year you where stoked about the experience and
opportunity of bowling for the team. It use to be in your signature as well. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Go try out and whatever ever happens, atleast you know you tried. Have fun, relax, don't sweat, remember to breathe and RELAX! Things happen for a reason.

The only let down in life is not trying, especially when you know you want it. So go for it.

Right now you only decision is whether or not you try out. You have to make the team to have the next decision. Being an alternate would be cool, if you really want to be part of them team. Lots of learning
opportunities with good coaches.

Must not be much of a school if you can't get excited about representing them in an athletic endevour.

In other words: Get off your lazy butt and be true to your school. Go bowl.

Beach boys reference again Rowdy??

I agree here if your going to this school, go bowl for them, it will give you something to look forward to on the weekends every week and gets you free practice, dont sweat the try outs most of the people that are there arent that good, have seen some averages.
