On Feb. 13, Celebrity Bowl will be presenting their 18th annual Sweet Heart Mixed Doubles 9-pin no tap Tournament. However, this year there is an added twist as two tourneys will be rolled into one. In addition to the “Sweet Heart Mixed” Doubles, there will be a “Lonely Heart” singles event.
The festivities begin at 6 p.m. Participants can bowl one or both tournaments at the same time. The entry fee is $25 per person ($50 a couple) and an additional $15 per person if you chose to enter the singles tournament.
One male and one female must make up a doubles team. Participants will bowl three games with total pin fall, including handicap, determining the winner.
This is a handicap tournament with handicap being 80 percent of 210. The tournament is open to all adult bowlers with a league average. Bowlers will use their 2008-09 book average. If you do not have a 2008-09 book average, you will use your current average of 21 games or more. Any bowler who cannot verify their average will bowl scratch.
Reservations and additional information can be obtained by calling Celebrity Bowl at 724-588-5220.
