LAKEWOOD — Bowlers don’t wait!! Entries are starting to flow in. Our Tri-Senate Cham- pionship Tournament has sold out three years in a row. If you want to secure your specific squad times, now is the time. The word is rapidly spreading throughout the bowling world about this exceptional tournament being held one big weekend, Saturday and Sunday, April 11-12, 2015 at Cal Bowl, in Lakewood, California.

Last year we had bowlers all the way from Ohio with a team from Las Vegas Nevada winning the grand first place prize money of $15,000.00. The $15,000.00 first prize is guaranteed based on 165 entries and going into our 4th Annual we are expecting to exceed last year’s entries of 171. Yes, this tournament is open to all USBC/TNBA bowlers.

However, if you are a current USBC member but not a TNBA member; you may still bowl in this premier event by simply purchasing the TNBA annual membership card for an additional $20. You may include your annual membership purchase with your entry form. Therefore, virtually EVERYONE is welcome to bowl!

This tournament is designed to attract bowlers from all skill levels, including “recreational bowlers,” “senior bowlers” (over age 55) as well as the high average bowlers! This is a handicap tournament that is based on 100% of the difference between the team entering average and 1050. The maximum team entering average is 1050 which is designed to make sure a team cannot consist of more than just a few high average bowlers. Teams whose total entering average is 900 or less, will be in the running for bonus prize money for the highest scoring teams in that category. Also, bonus prize money will be awarded to the highest scoring all senior teams. The bonus team prize pay offs will be based on the total number of entries.

Our tournament offers multiple ways to cash, especially within that squad. Every squad bowler will have the opportunity to participate in the optional flat fee round robin “sweepstakes” doubles event, allowing bowlers to compete as doubles partner with all others selecting that option for that squad. Brackets and side pots will also be offered and paid immediately after the squad. The round robin will be paid out with the regular prize fund.

Bowlers are allowed to participate multiple times as long as they change the team rosters with at least two different bowlers each time. All teams must be mixed teams of five members and must have at least two women and two men. There are five squads available to choose from, Saturday, April 11 at 9am, 1pm and 5:30pm or Sunday, April 12 at 9am and 1pm. For your convenience an advertisement with the entry form is available in this issue of the Bowling News or you may down- load your pre-fill entry from http://www.socaltrisenates.com

Juanita Blocker continued from page 1 of course, in those days the nets were held by portable Volley Ball Standards. After suffering an injury from a fallen standard, Juanita invented a safety device to secure the standards, for which she received a monetary award. Those devices were then installed in all Los Angeles County playgrounds and centers. Besides coaching sports, Juanita possessed a talent in art projects and writing. Under her close eye and tutoring her students would many times, come away with First Place Blue Ribbons from the Los Angeles County Fair in Pomona for their artwork and poetic writings. The sport of bowling came into the picture in the l940’s when while attending LACC, Juanita would often go into what was then, Vogue Bowl at 49th & Central, and spectate the bowlers. It wasn’t long before she was convinced “I can do that” and thus the beginning of Juanita’s bowling career, and, first encounter with a sports headliner. During one of her practice sessions, a huge black gentleman stepped up and offered to coach her. Lo and behold, it was none other than Joe “The Brown Bomber” Lewis, the heavy- weight boxer. Lewis who owned an east coast bowling alley (as they were called then), hung out at Vogue Bowl with a close friend Ernest Whitman, a professional singer and movie actor. Juanita loved “this game” and proved to be one of the few black women to average 185 and better. The Parent Senate of the (TNBA) The National Bowling Association was formed in 1939 and Juanita joined the organization in hopes to use her bowling talents to open some doors for the TNBA. Unfortunately, until well into the 1950’s the black bowling athlete received little recognition and no opportunity to take their sport to a professional level. Although Juanita pursued her game of bowling, she remained involved in other sports, because if you were good, you made the team. She was recruited to a women’s professional basketball team sponsored by the popular “Dad’s Rootbeer”. Their team traveled up and down the coast of California and as far away as Phoenix, Arizona, competing against women military teams. As far as Juanita knew, they were the only black female team in this travel league. Juanita recalled the excitement when with the influence of singer Nat King Cole and Charlotte Bass, owner of the California Eagle Newspaper, ( later known as the Los Angeles Sentinel), their team received an invitation to play the pre-game show to the famous Harlem Globe Trotters at the Los Angeles Olympic Stadium. When basketball season was over, Juanita spent more time on her bowling game but was also playing shortstop and second base for the California Eaglettes, a Los Angeles Parks & Recreation Women’s Softball Team. They were sponsored by the California Eagle Newspaper and Nat King Cole. Juanita held a batting average of 275-285 and was largely feared by her opponents for her “steal-and-slide” techniques. Juanita utilized her talent for the game and coached other players. One particular player she coached was non other than Richard Williams, father of the well-known professional Tennis Stars, Venus and Selena Williams, of Compton, California. Unfortunately, all that vigorous activity took its toll and she was later in life reminded every day by the pain she endured in both her ankles. Juanita played Tennis as well. She was third-seated to the then well known, Pauline (Bobbie) Betz, a Wimbleton Champion. In fact, Juanita held the honor of being the only player who then could beat Betz. Ironically, Juanita was coached by none other than…. Pauline’s mother, Stella Betz! Prior to 1950, (ABC), the American Bowling Congress, and the (WIBC) Women’s International Bowling Congress Rules banned non-caucasians from bowling in their events, but that did not discourage Juanita from becoming a bowler of note. She knew the game well and wanted to become a Certified Bowling Instructor. While working as the Manager for Studio Bowling Academy, Los Ange- les, (since closed) owner Victor Bernath sent her to Instructor’s School where she was tutored by the best; National Hall of Famer Buddy Bomar, Bill Bunetta and California’s own, Helen Duval. It wasn’t long after that Georgia Veach, Founder and President of the (PWBA) Professional Women’s Bowling Association accepted Juanita’s application for membership. She had the honor of being the first black woman member of the PWBA on the west coast during the 1950’s and 1970’s. Juanita applied for sponsorship from AMF, but they were not sending black bowlers on tour, so armed with a 189 average and the sponsorship of PWBA members, Donna Zim- merman and Merle Matthew (since deceased), Juanita put her busy schedule on hold and hit the “pro trail” as a member of the Greater Los Angeles Women’s Traveling League. The schedule required visiting 28 different centers per season, which at that time, was no easy task. Bill Stennis, owner of the well-known Golden Bird Restaurant chain, sponsored their team and Juanita proudly recalled bowling with teammate Georgia Veach and crossing lanes with the famous bowling pro Marion Ladewig. While traveling to tourna- ments across the United States Juanita endured anxieties and indignities most of us cannot even imagine. Times when she could not practice bowling until after midnight until all “other” bowlers were through. She was unable to eat at the bowling alley café counter where the “other” bowlers were seated. Juanita was blessed with an innate understanding of the times and the importance of which it took to break barriers. And, she did. Juanita set numerous records. Over300-400 trophies, medals, plaques, certificates, ribbons, and more. The first 720 series she shot at Hollywood Legion Lanes, (since closed) held top honors with WIBC for some time. Following her pro tours, Juanita devoted herself to all other facets of the bowling game. She was the resident Certified Instructor from 1971 to 1981 at Southwest Bowl at Western and Imperial, (which has since closed). Many of her students were from Southwest College across the street, several who were of foreign cultures and had little athletic ability. Although there was a language barrier, Juanita made her actions speak for her and helped pave the way for those youth to be able to enjoy the game anywhere. Juanita was instrumental in convincing the Los Angeles Board of Education to give grade credits to high school and college students who attended her classes. In 1961 Juanita joined the Los Angeles “600” Bowling Club and was eventually elected to their Board of Directors. In 1962 she was elected to the Board of Directors of the Los Angeles Women’s Bowling Association (LAWBA). Although Juanita was a “natural” in any sport she engaged in, she also possessed a wonderful talent for writing about sports. She was handsomely rewarded in many ar- eas. In 1963 she was given her own sports column which appeared weekly in the Los Angeles Sentinel Newspaper for over 35 years. In all that time, she remained the devoted publicist to her Los Angeles organizations and the TNBA. It was during this same era that Los Angeles Supervisor Kenneth Hahn, (since deceased), presented Juanita with a “Writ of Commendation” for the poems and odes she composed about the newly dedicated Olympic Style Swimming Stadium at Will Rogers Park. It was this same year, while still managing Studio Bowling Academy that the Annual Press Conference and the Los Angeles Sentinel voted Juanita as the “Woman of the Year in Sports”.
