News and Notes

Drake Kalkopf & Kyler Zeman - 300 Game

With the 2026–2027 bowling season officially underway, Globe Lanes hosted our first youth tournament of the year on Sunday, October 18th! We had 45 fantastic youth bowlers competing across four age divisions during two separate shifts.

The morning shift featured our U12 and U14 divisions, while the afternoon brought out the U16 and U18 competitors.  Congratulations to the top finishers in each division!  Check out the photos and complete tournament results below!

All awarded scholarship money has been deposited directly into each recipient’s SMART account.

Thank you so much to all the bowlers who came out to compete! We also want to extend a special thank you to this year’s generous sponsors for making this event possible:

  • Cedar Valley Cheese
  • CPI

Mark your calendars!  Our next youth tournament is the Ken Brunnbauer Memorial Tournament on Sunday, November 22nd at Lakeshore Lanes. Check out the details below and fill out the entry form to sign up!
