Minto Maniacs - 5PU Pro League Team

20/08/2026

This past weekend, the Minto Maniacs had their annual summer get together. We spent the day on the golf course, followed by some socializing late into the night. We were missing a few of our people, but we made sure to drink their share of beverages!

Season 6 of the 5PL is quickly approaching, and we are SO ready to get the ball rolling. Literally!

After a long grueling week of bowling is 40°C+ weather, battling humidity levels around the 99% range, and having bowling centers so hot that there was condensation on the approaches and in the pits, it has all come to an end.

The Minto Maniacs had 3 members attending the Masters Nationals hosted in Burlington. Christa Mulhall was on the Woman’s Tournament Team. Sean Dieno was on the Men’s Tournament Team. Michael Pelechaty was representing as Men’s Tournament Singles.

All said and done, Michael was the only maniac with a bit of of success this weekend. Despite the unheard of lane conditions, Michael prevailed to place 2nd overall in the singles round robin. Then battled in the step ladder, but fell short band got bronze 🥉

Congratulations to all the divisions respected winners! It wasnt an easy fight, but those who were able to asjist and overcome, were the ones to succeed.

We hope to see a few maniacs, or maybe even more, at next years nationals. Until then, see you on the 5PL streams ❤️

Well, the Cargill Divisions regular season came to an end over the past weekend.

It was a heck of a battle all season long, but unfortunately we came up short on making the playoffs. We fought hard every match and had some great success to start the season. As the season progressed, we found ourselves on the losing end of some very close matches. Although the season didn’t end the way we wanted it to, we still are homding our heads high abs looking forward to next year!

In the meantime, you can spot us on the ball diamonds, golf courses, and lakes… once all this snow melts that is.

We want to make one last major shout out to our amazing sponsors! You stood by us all season long, endlessly supporting us through our highest highs and lowest lows. Thank you ❤️

Ouch! Week 15 of 5PL Season 5 did NOT go how we had hoped. We got roughed up a bit both games we played. We managed to take 2 points from Motor City Mayhem- 5PL, and 1 point from Grande Prairie Holy Rollers.

Luckily, this still leaves us with an opportunity to fight for playoffs, and we intend to give it our all!

Thank you to all our sponsors for continuing to support. Please make sure to show them suppot in return!
