It's "All systems go" for the opening ceremony of the 42nd Qubica AMF Bowling World Cup in Caracas, Venezuela.

The tournament will take place from 4th to 10 November in the 40-lane centre in Mampote, just outside Caracas. The final line up in Venezuela has beaten the record of 95 participating nations in Singapore 2004, with massive 102 countries entered.

Graham Coles & Julie Jackson will be representing "The Rock" this year, they will be accompanied by John Honeyman as Team Manager.

Graham has been Bowling very well this season and is averaging 200 in practice, let's hope he can maintain or even better this standard in Caracas, hopefully this will ensure him of a place in the top 24.

Both Julie and Graham have competed at International level in the past, having both attended World Cup events on 2 previous occasions.

A fund raising Raffle for the event was staged at Morisson's Forecourt on Sunday 29th October, and the winner was Mrs Helen Jones, with Ticket Number 138 Blue. She won the Luxury Christmas Goods Hamper. The GTBA would like to thank everyone who supported them and purchased tickets.
