Winter Wii Bowling Season begins January 8th

Melissa Kallett

The ever popular Winter Wii Bowling Season will meet on Thursday nights at 4:30 and 6:30 p.m. in the Tuscany Clubhouse Chianti Room from January 8 through March 26. The leagues can accommodate a total of 32 six person teams (16 in each session, for a total of 192 people).

Registration is limited and, if history proves true again, the league will fill up quickly. Registration will be held on Wednesday, December 10 starting at 8:00 a.m. at the Eagle’s Nest Activities Office. Cost is $15 per person with an additional $1 per player collected each week. Interested Wii’ers can either sign up as a single player or form a team of up to six people. On registration day the following will be adhered to:

1. One person may sign up a full team provided they have the names, phones and email addresses of everyone on the team, plus the full payment.

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 all leagues are filled, a wait list will be established.

4. 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! No actual balls scurrying down the lanes and no oil from the alleys to get your hands dirty. Best part yet? No previous experience at playing Nintendo games is required because this game is easy to learn. If you can turn the channels via your TV remote control, then you can Wii Bowl. A complete list of League Rules is available at the Eagle’s Nest Activities Office.

Grab your friends and neighbors; proceed to the Activities Center at Eagles Nest and sign up for the Wii Bowling League. Let the games begin!
