player profile
| Hi everyone,
I’m Christina, I’m currently 39 years old. I was born and raised in the small town of Apopka, Florida (About 30 miles north of Disney world) I have a wonderful husband (Darren) and a just as wonderful son (Colin) Both are huge supporters of my love for bowling and I couldn’t imagine not having them with me in this fun adventure we call life. |
Who / What Got You Started in Bowling?
| Bowling has been a huge part of my family. My grandfather was an avid bowler. Both of my parents were competitive bowlers, each of them with honor scores of their own.
So it was only natural that at age 5 I’d be rolling the ball also. It’s been my favorite thing to do ever since. |
What Do You Love About the Sport?
| Oh gosh..
There are so many things bowling has brought to my life I don’t know that I can really narrow it down. From Junior league memories, a high school state championship, friendships, I even met my husband around age 13 in our junior league. (But I didn’t much like him then 😂😂) The competition our sport brings at any given tournament, that feeling that never goes away the first time you throw a new ball down the lane. Getting to be on the pair with some of the greatest to ever play the game. It’s really impossible to pinpoint exactly what it is I love about Bowling. But I sure do love it! |
Favorite Bowling Memory
| Sooo many of these. So hard to pick just one. But I’ll go with the first time I bowled a local sweeper and was on the pair with Walter Ray Williams Jr. I was pretty new to competitive bowling at that point, and I thought those guys only bowled on the tour and I’d only ever see them on tv!
That was the most nerve racking 8 games of my life lol! But ever since that day I’ve been able to call Walter a friend. What an amazing sport it is huh? Being able to compete with your childhood idles. Wow! |
Who is Your Favorite Bowler?
| Simple, Belmo. |
