We at CoolWick are pleased to announce our newest CoolWick Crew Member, PBA Titlist, Josh Blanchard.

Blanchard is, of course, a house hold name in the bowling industry and we could not be more delighted to add him to our ever-growing and talented staff.

The thirty-one year old right hander has three National Titles on his resume, ten PBA Regional titles, and boat loads of collegiate bowling accolades, most notably the 2009-10 Collegiate Bowler of the Year.

The former Rookie of the Year isn’t just a tremendous signing on the lanes, though. Blanchard was the 2015 Steve Nagy Sportsmanship Award winner — given to the touring professional that most graciously embodies what it means to be a true sport.

We at CoolWick are happy to add an exceptional player and person to our staff and we know that Josh is in for a huge season on the PBA Tour.

We know we will be following him closely, but make sure you do too, as he will be giving away tons of product on his social media accounts throughout the PBA tour season. Josh is very active on social media, so don’t miss out!

Go get it this year, Josh, and don’t forget to stay “Cool.”

As a native to Southern California, Josh grew up bowling JAT (Junior Amateur Tour) events at age 12 and won his first title at age 13. He knew college bowling was the next step for him at Fresno State. After two successful years under legendary coach Glenn Carlson, Josh finished his college bowling career at Wichita State under Bowlers Journal’s Top 100 coaches Mark Lewis and Gordan Vadakin. Graduating in 2010 with a degree in Business and winning two national championships, Josh moved back to the west coast to pursue his dream in coaching and bowling.

With 14 years of experience giving lessons and clinics around the World, Josh has worked with every level of bowler and understands where each bowler is coming from.

His understanding of the importance of the mental game and lane play strategy provides a dynamic element to his lessons that is hard to find.
