Dexter Bowling and the Teen Masters!

The Teen Masters is bowling’s premier High School Championship Event – an event that aspiring teen bowlers use to showcase their skills and talents. With regional qualifying events all over the country, over 1,000 young adults participated in the 2009 Teen Masters. The culmination resulted in 362 national finalists, consisting of 244 boys and 118 girls, to head out to Las Vegas to compete for the ultimate honor. The finals were held at the glamorous Fashion Show Mall in July at a specially constructed lane built specifically for the Teen Masters. Check out the accompanying video to get a feel for the excitement and buzz that the Teen Masters brought to all of its 2009 participants and fans.

Dexter Bowling is very proud to once again be a tournament sponsor for the Teen Masters event. “It’s amazing to see how the Teen Masters has grown over the past decade,” said Vice President of Dexter Bowling, Bud Clapsaddle. “The growth and excitement of youth bowling is what sustains our sport, both presently and for the future. It’s great to be able to reward so many with college scholarship money, and I’d like to personally congratulate each and every participant for their involvement in this year’s event.”

This year’s Teen Masters tournament crowned a Team Champion, a Boys Champion, a Girls Champion, and a “Battle of the Sexes” champion in which the Boys title winner and the Girls title winner squared off to determine the best of the best. For the first time in its history, Teen Masters also crowned a collegiate champion.

Most importantly, the 2009 Teen Masters awarded over $140,000 in college scholarships during the national championships!

If you couldn’t make it out to Las Vegas to see all the Teen Masters action, don’t worry. The television network Versus, home to the National Hockey League and the Tour de France, will be airing the championships’ semi-finals and finals matches in seven installments between November 2nd and November 11th, all at 5:30 pm EST. Please check your local listings for further details.
