The highlight of the student bowling calendar is the BUCS Gatorade Nationals which this season took place in Sheffield (at 1st Bowl, Firth Park) on the weekend of the 23rd/24th February 2013.
British Universities and Colleges Sports (BUCS) is the organisation that governs almost all student level sport in Great Britain, and Tenpin Bowling comes under its remit.
The BUCS Tenpin Bowling Championships (this year sponsored by Gatorade for the first time as part of a weekend of BUCS Championship events in a variety of sports in Sheffield!) has long been the flagship event of student bowling (previously known as the BUSA Champs and before that the UAU Champs), as Universities and Colleges across the land compete with each other to win or place as highly as they can at the bowling championships and at as many different BUCS sporting events as they can, thus enhancing the sporting standards of their institution.
After an exhilarating weekend at First Bowl Sheffield, the results are now available here. Full report to follow.
