MY TENPIN BOWLING PAGE This all started with posting of my own stats. I then decided to try to get all Country Cup results. The site has since expanded to include Senior Shield, Colac Masters, Ramblers Men's League and more recently Colac Cup results. |

VICTORIAN COUNTRY CUP First contested in 1981 at Warrnambool, when played over one round. Eight associations competed for a perpetual cup for the overall winners. The eight original associations were Albury / Wodonga, Ballarat, Bendigo, Colac, Geelong, Latrobe Valley, Shepparton and Warrnambool.
Sale joined in 1983 and Mildura in 1985. No more new teams until 2000 when Oven's & Murray joined. Two new teams in 2001 - Sale & District and Bairnsdale. (Bairnsdale only bowled until 2003)
Back to ten teams from 2009 with the closure of Sale bowl.
Three perfect "300's" have been bowled in the 30 years the event has been held. The first, in 2000, by Jason Motta from Latrobe Valley the second, in 2009, by Josh Alvisse from Geelong and the third by Kevin Wilkins from Shepparton in 2010.
Colac have won the Overall trophy three (3) times and the Men's six (6) times. Colac women have not yet won their division.
Hall of Fame inductions commenced in 2011. There are two categories - Hall of Fame and Legends.
