2004
Youth
Candlepin Championships
Oct 31st - Nov 21st at the Bowl-O-Rama,
Portsmouth, NH
The 27th Annual International Youth Tournament
came to an end (unfortunately) after four
straight weekends of exciting competition
by the American and Canadian youth bowlers.
Candlepincorner.com would like to extend a big congratulations to all who participated in the event. There were some ultra close finishes which set the stage for some big triumphs and unfortunately some let-downs. What's most important though is ALL the bowlers we watched held their heads up high and displayed nothing less than a numero uno level of sportsmanship. For that we say KUDOS to the kids!
