Now I am really confused! I just browsed that page you linked to again, which is the BC page, but it also talks about Ontario. Is this or isn't this applying to all of Canada? I guess I need to learn how to read better......

Jeff,

I understand it's all Canada.

Apparently Quebec have their own and was never sanctioned by ABC/WIBC. Looks like we all have to join them now.

We will have our own local chapters though.

I'm shocked too.

We have a very small population and should stay attached to the U.S.

This was talked about at the ABC convention in Billings. There were representatives from the Canadian Federation at that convention. This I think all goes back to the Olympic stuff and the eventual forming of the USBC. Each country will have their own national bowling association. Never heard how this affected participation in the Nationals. I guess that would depend on if they honor the averages, but this would only be an issue if you had a lower average. You should be able to sanction at the event in the regular division. I know bowlers here that the Nationals is all they bowl and have no book average.

I just got to thinking (something almost unheard of for me ) and it occurred to me some of the larger tournaments for the Junior bowlers are Yaba tournaments like Pepsi. Will they still be accepting entries from the new CTF sanctioned bowlers or do you think they would just do away with it all completely?

I personally am done with Pepsi, etc. but I think it would be a devastating blow to the whole Junior tournaments scene because it is my experience that the CTF doesn't do a very good job at running their national championships/tournaments (at least the past few years in Ontario they haven't).
