The Winter Wii Bowling Season will meet on Wednesday nights at 4:30 and 6:00 p.m. in the Tuscany Clubhouse Chianti Room January 18 through March 22. The leagues can accommodate a total of 40 six-person teams (20 in each session, for a total of 240 people).
Registration is limited and, if history proves true again, the league will be full. As in years past, composition of the league will be determined by lottery. Registration will run from December 8 through 29 at the Eagle’s Nest Activities Office. Cost is $20 per person, with an additional $1 per player collected each week. Interested Wii’ers can either sign up as a full team of six people or as individuals or any combo up to six. Incomplete teams will be made full as registration forms are received, as only full teams will participate in the lottery. On lottery day (December 30)—any incomplete teams unfortunately won’t be included in the lottery. Rather those persons will form a wait list should substitute players be needed prior to the start of the season. Registrants need adhere to the following:
1. One person may register a full team provided they have the names, email addresses (and phone numbers if person has no email) of everyone on the team, plus the full payment. Preference is check payable to PCHOA.
2. You must specify your league preference (Twi-light or Evening League) and whether you’d be willing to switch leagues if necessary.
2. A person may not register more than one team.
3. Once a team is registered there can be no substitutions of team members. If a player must drop out, the League Commissioner will fill vacancies from a wait list.
Persons who will be out of town during the registration period will need to make arrangements for a local neighbor or friend to register for them. No advance or email registrations will be accepted.
Just what is Wii Bowling? It’s an interactive, fun game involving moderate activity and a remote control device. The wireless control looks much like your TV remote and, while you swing your arm, the device mimics the actions of rolling the ball down the alley. The result is projected on a TV screen—the pins go flying, you rack up the score—and it’s just that easy!
Grab your friends and neighbors; proceed to the Activities Center on Eagle’s Nest and sign up for the Wii Bowling League. Let the games begin!
