You’re about to witness something pretty special in Southland!! 👇

Last night during Steve’s Auto League, local legend Luke (lrbxiii_bowling) bowled 299!!! Just a nail biting 1 point off the perfect score you can achieve of 300 😬

There have been 4 bowlers who have achieved a 300 score since 1987 when the bowling alley was opened which shows how hard this is to achieve. You can see the plaques awarded to these 4 players on our wall

Fun fact: There has only ever been one other 299 score during our history

Massive congratulations Luke!! We’re pretty confident we’ll be needing to add a perfect 300 score plaque to the wall for you soon enough 😃

Age is just a number on the lanes! 🎳

We caught up with one of our youngest league bowlers (Liam Otoole), who's taken on the challenge of competing in an adult league.

From making new friends to improving every week, he shares what it's been like bowling alongside experienced players and why he loves coming back.

Thinking about joining a league? No matter your age or experience, everyone's welcome. 🎳
