Avon Lake High School Starting Bowling Team

AVON LAKE, OH - For the first time in school history, Avon Lake will have a varsity bowling team.

The team will compete in the North Shore Conference against familiar foes like North Olmsted, Midview, and North Ridgeville. The Shoremen's bowling squad will also compete in the OHSAA State Bowling Tournament at the end of the season.

Unlike some other sports, OHSAA does not determine who and when a varsity bowling squad plays. Instead, the organization caps the number of matches a team may play during the course of a season at 24.

While the Avon Lake website advertises the season as beginning on Nov. 7, according to OHSAA's website teams may not begin actual head-to-head competition until Nov. 18. However, tryouts can begin on Nov. 4.

The school's website says that an organizational meeting will be held in the coming weeks, but no official date has yet been offered.

If you or someone you know may be interested in joining the team, Player Interest Forms can be filled out at this link.
