WINTER BREAK

Winter Break:

You must bowl at least 2 times over the break.  Since we bowl Bergenfield on Monday 1/2, I would prefer the 2^nd time you bowl to be closer to 1/2 to be ready for that match.  ONCE YOU HAVE BOWLED, YOU MUST ENTER YOUR SCORES IN THE ONLINE GOOGLE SHEET I MADE!!!  2 or 3 games each time you go, your choice. LINK HERE!!!  https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/14FcruHfMA1pnudnkcFAQouDTJrsmoUVwP6ZjAwHVNX8/edit?usp=sharing

Upcoming Match’s

Monday 1/2- vs Bergenfield at Holiday Bowl.  We DO NOT have school this day so you need to get your own ride each way and be at the lanes by 3:15pm.

Tuesday 1/3- Girls vs Bergen Tech, Boys vs Wayne Hills at Holiday Bowl

Wednesday 1/4- vs Teaneck at Bowler City in Hackensack.  We will ONLY be bringing 8 boys and 8 girls to this match.  Top 8 averages of girls and top 8 averages of boys go to the match.  YOU MUST TAKE THE BUS TO THE MATCH!  Be outside in the front of IHHS by 3:15pm.
