Emerging Stronger after Debut

Though our team of youth girls who debut at the 24th Asian Intercity Bowling Championships did not return with any medal, the experience through their participation had proven to be a valuable learning experience. Competing against other keglers from the regional bowling powerhouses such as Daegu and Pasay, this championship provided them the opportunity to benchmark their bowling skills.
