“Let systems run the business and people run the systems. People come and go but systems remain constant."
League Bowler Development hasn’t really changed over the past 40 years, but it’s a skill set that hasn’t been shared with the new generation. What was simply "Tribal Knowledge" is now documented, created by the BPAA League Development
Committee, the Bowler Development along with the System of League Bowling provides bowling center owners, operators, managers and other personnel with fast and efficient guidance on the development and retention of league bowlers. This
full-day Boot Camp takes a deep dive into the system to provide you with the tools and techniques necessary to meet your league goals, regardless of the season. No matter how much or how little skill you have in league development, the
guidance in this system will make you a better, more proficient and more confident bowling center owner, operator, manager or league coordinator.
