2009
CTF NATIONAL TEAM MEMBERS
Congratulation go out to both Dan Tereck and Lynne Gauthier for earning spots on the CTF 2009 National Contingent. The National Championship was held in Winnipeg on May 16-19, 2008 at
Chateau Lanes and La Verendrye.
This is Tereck’s first time making the squad, which is probably due to the fact that he never competed in this National Championship before. Outstanding Dan and hopefully the first of many national team assignments to come!
With another strong showing at the National Championship, Gauthier earned her 4th term on the National Team Contingent.
Way To Go Lynne and Good Bowling to both bowlers at their International Competitions!
