I inquired about additional practice days at Park Lanes but unfortunately there are not any extra time slots available. I'm going to talk to Don Carter's and see if we can possibly get an extra optional day of practice on Wednesdays or Thursdays. If approved, there will not be bus transportation provided.

Unfortunately, our bus arrival time is between 4:15pm & 4:50pm. This is due to the lack of available drivers for after school activities and is beyond our control. We ask that everyone is patient as we wait for the bus to arrive both at the school, and at the alley.

The latest schedule and other valuable information can be found on the Eisenhower Dashboard

Because of the limited number of days I get working with the students, please feel free to visit Park Lanes or one of the other local alley's (RESOURCES tab => Bowling Alleys) and spend some time with your kids on the lane. The amount of fulfillment our family has received from this sport is immeasurable. It's a great place to bond, eat together, and work on some basics.

Please be on time picking up students from practices and matches. Our practices are over at 6pm. Coaches can not leave until all students are picked up and because the alley has leagues which begin immediately after we complete our practices, they would like us to exit as quickly as possible.

I have a number of students who are not registered on 8to18 or do not have their physicals turned in. Please complete this as soon as possible!! 8to18 takes minutes to complete registration and is required. Physicals can be done at any immediate care facility or through their primary physician. We had lane shortages on our first practice because of these steps not being taken care of prior to the program beginning.

Thank you to everyone, we're looking forward to a great season!!
Go Eagles!! 🎳

To My Student Athletes,

I just wanted to take a moment to share how incredibly excited I am as we kick off our middle school bowling season! It feels like just yesterday we were wrapping up last season, and now we're back with new challenges, new goals, and a fresh opportunity to show what we've got!

Bowling is not just about the strikes and spares; it's about teamwork, sportsmanship, and building lasting friendships. I can’t wait to see all of our hard work and practice pay off as we compete against other schools. Each frame we roll together is a chance to grow, learn, and cheer each other on.

Let’s bring our energy, enthusiasm, and a positive attitude to every practice and every game. Remember, whether you’re a seasoned bowler or just starting out, every one of you plays a crucial role on this team, and I’m so proud to have you all on board.

Get ready for an amazing season filled with fun, growth, and plenty of strikes! Let's make some unforgettable memories together!

Bowling high fives all around!!

There will be a preseason meeting at Eisenhower Middle School in the cafeteria at 4PM on January 28th. It should last under 45 minutes.

We made a Valiant effort at the IHSA Regionals competition and finished in 9th place. While we may not have secured a top position, the journey to this moment was filled with hard work, determination, and invaluable lessons that will stay with us long after the last pin fell. Every strike celebrated was a moment of joy, while every error served as a reminder of the areas we could improve. There were games where we soared high and others where we struggled to find our rhythm. Yet, that’s the essence of bowling, overcoming obstacles and learning from them.

Finishing in 9th place may not seem like a triumph at first glance, but for us, it was a stepping stone. It reflected the progress we have made as a team over the season. We came together, building a camaraderie that transcended the lanes. Each member contributed unique strengths, and collectively, we formed a unit driven by common goals. Bowling is as much a mental game as it is physical. The pressure of competition can be overwhelming, and maintaining focus amidst distractions is crucial. Everyone supported each other, cheering on our teammates and offering encouraging words during difficult frames. This bond not only strengthened our performance but also created memories that will last a lifetime.

We're looking forward to seeing everyone next year!!
