Welcome to our bowling website

Since 1990, I have attempted to provide bowling fans with the best in bowling coverage from high school to adult accomplishments.

In December 2020, I formally retired from The Canton (Ohio) Repository newspaper, leaving the area with a lack of coverage of the sport of bowling in the Northeast Ohio area.

So, in October 2021, I began a new online source for bowling coverage, from local to national, as we attempt to highlight the accomplishments of players, teams, tournaments, etc.

Should you have suggestions, criticisms, story ideas, etc. to help us improve our site, please don’t hesitate to contact us at snierw@gmail.com. In addition, we will be making adjustments to our site in 2024, adding the opportunity for area businesses to advertise for the first time. More on that soon. See you around the lanes and please enjoy our site.

Yours in bowling,
