Executive summary The Sport of Tenpin is often confused with the commercial centres business and operations and as a result many may erroneously believe our sport is supported fully commercially. In fact our not for profit organisation operating pathways for athletes in the sport, which provides a calendar of events, education and training opportunities, for TBA members, the community, coaches, and officials is principally funded by State Government Sport and Recreation Organisation Development funding and income from sport services generated by TBAQ . Commercial centres partnerships are integral in supporting the delivery and sponsorship of % School Roll ‘n Strike resources (modified tenpin lanes) enabling us to deliver further resouces allowing us to reach over 60,000 school children in Qld (2018 figures) with the supply of free resources to Schools in Queensland each year. Some of the many services our organisation and volunteer coaches support include Junior and Youth Development camps, ‘learn to bowl, ‘coach supported state wide leagues’, sport research and development, coach, officials and athlete pathways, coach and official recruitment. Bowling Centres do offer price relief in some instances for events at bowling venues however maintaining our place at the centre is a constant priority for the sport. Community services: A great deal of our success is tied to our community sport Roll ‘n Strike ‘in school’ curricula program providing just over $350,000 of modified equipment free to schools each year (equipment audit Nov 2018). The Roll ‘n Strike brand is our Tenpin Modified (TM) branding. We also support community organisations operating in sports halls, multi sport expos, sport services and support for people with a disability and currently we are planning the expansion of these services dependent on funding and resources to include new early learning programs (Tenpin Tots) and launching other new innovative services in 2019 universities across Queensland for future years. Queensland (TBAQ) was the first State in the sport of Tenpin Bowling to initiate the ‘in-school’ development program. Expanding support services to Universities increases our reach in Queensland. TBAQ have on line teacher development program and are positioning our sport as an example of effective best practice option to teachers prior to their placement in schools across Queensland. TBAQ provide Universities and Schools with the tools to teach and is the only sport to keep all students (up to 36 in a class) on task at all times during the program. The Roll ‘n Strike program of Tenpin is used in Universities as an effective teaching tool in the Bachelor of Education HPE pedagogy unit at Southern Cross University in past years. (teacher professional development on our website password access TBAQ0114) Successful partnerships: We partnered with Qld Sport CONNECT network. Deaf Sport and Recreation worked with us to produce an Auslan video to better orientate persons with a hearing impairment to the sport and recreation of tenpin and we aim to provide more services and support for people with a disability as Tenpin Bowling is the number one activity

choice of persons with a disability assisting persons experience the physical and emotional success of participation. Tenpin is a unique sport that offers many ways to play the game. Bowlers keep active and healthy through participating in what can be a fun or competitive activity, individual, doubles or team outcomes. Tenpin Bowling venues are fully equipped with bowling aids (rails, bumpers and balls with handles) to include absolutely everyone. This Strategic Plan including special initiatives introduced from time to time are aimed at reaching more people in the community. TBAQ Board of Management have an integral role in prioritising and managing our strategic plan increasing our capacity to deliver greater participation and sport services on behalf of the Tenpin Bowling Association of Queensland Inc (TBAQ) and our stakeholders into the future. The operational plan will be used by the Board and CEO, to define roles, performance and key indicators of each of our strategies tied to projected costing and budgets. Measurements of progress will be collated in 3 year increments and used to examine effectiveness of governance, increased capacity to deliver, and define the sport services of greatest value to grass roots participants and volunteers delivering. This Strategic plan is a living document and when necessary, will be modified to reflect the ongoing development of technology, best practice delivery models and current needs of the Sport of tenpin and the Community. Association/Club/ and Committee base: TBAQ has a base of 26 Bowling Centre Venues state-wide in 2019. Some centre’s represented by both a junior and adult association. Our aim is to have all our associations incorporated. We have 5 Volunteer committees who deliver our State and Zone Championships and state representative teams for all categories of bowler, and 2 event specific committees who manage state driven events for juniors and seniors over 35 years of age. TBAQ provide governance resources and guides at no cost to Associations in 2018-2019 through an external organization

Community Sport utilizing “Club Spot”. Ensuring up to date governance guides, templates and assistance is provided Venue access: Bowling Centre’s have closed recetnly, Kedron, Cannon Hill, Redcliffe Bowl through real estate values climbing tempting commercial proprietors to cash in Our sport need to establish a venue where we are able to expand participation and increase membership of the sport all year including school holiday seasons (the lanes are at their busiest and therefore too expensive for sport services hire) has resulted in our need to plan in the future for a Centre of excellence for Tenpin (‘Home of Tenpin’ facility). TBAQ would have a venue to drive all our programs and services without the limitations of hiring only at times convenient to commercial business. 24 lanes in an indoor complex could engage international camps and host our sports Nationals throughout the year. Youth Nationals in January, Junior Nationals at Easter, Disabilities Nationals in August, Adult and Senior Nationals in October, attracting thousands to the Queensland venue and also offering our sport travelers all that Queensland is famous for. We are keen to investigate all and any avenues of access to facilities, existing or planned into the future. Sponsorship successes and Benefits: TBAQ have successfully attracted sponsors providing incentives to Queensland juniors and youths embarking on international pathways in our sport. During 2016 we partnered with SCOOT airlines offering 14 return fares to Asia to talent ID Queensland athletes and officials to gain international experience in Malaysia in the Milo Junior (21 years and under) International tournament. Entry to this opportunity is via Junior and youth development camps, Qld based junior and youth tournaments and State Based Training Squad inclusion. This sponsorship was offered into 2017 also. TBAQ has 12 junior development events linked to this opportunity in 2019. No other state level association provides international experience to juniors and youths within their state strategic plan, in addition to supporting National pathways of the National training Squad. One of our athletes Blayne Fletcher winning the International All Stars Milo tournament in Malaysia in 2016 and 5 athletes making the finals in 2017. We are currently consulting with external agencies to assist with attaining further sponsorship in 2019 and beyond. The State Based Training Squad is the pathway to National teams for Qld Tenpin Bowling Talent ID processes, The State Training Squad is accessible to all categories of bowler including, Junior, Youth, Adult, Senior and Bowlers with a disability. The State based training Squad program for athletes is also a training ground for our coaches. Local coaches passing this knowledge through TBAQ coach education workshops accessed at regional and rural areas. Education and Training Calendar: Coaches: TBAQ drive Coach Workshops supporting local coaches to deliver up to date material to athletes. Our coach network supporting the Qld Talent ID program will be submitting their calendar of activity for 2019. Coach Developers have been identified (2 to date situated in Rockhampton and Mackay) with further networks to be built over the next 5 years to expand our numbers of coaches. Our NSO drives the accreditation process and our role in offficials and coach education is to drive coach workshops in Qld keeping the teaching material current and feeding into our popular Qld Talent ID program. This pathway process allows Queensland juniors to fast track to national levels through State and international experience opportunities boosting results at national levels with more of our junior and youth athletes gaining places in Australian teams through National tournament rankings and selection to compete overseas. TBAQ introduce World Champion American Professional bowlers to join our high performance program including this activity in our Junior and Youth development Program and State Training Squad promotions in addition to our regular clinics and camps available in North Queensland and South Queensland. This has proved to be extremely successful so we will be targeting women and girls with invitations to be mentored by these champions in the future. We have been fortunate in 2017 and2018 to have American Kelly Kulick World number 2 Professional Bowler and Coach to drive our Junior state camps in Qld and we have enjoyed increased numbers in our junior development because of this partnership. High Performance: 2018 National Rankings: Juniors : 5 Qlders in top 10 Qld Youth 5 Qld Youths in top 10 National rankings with Chloe Jones from Townsville as number 1 in the ladies division. . Adults : 3 Qlders in top 10 5 Seniors in top 10 National rankings Our State bowlers boasting Gold medals at Australian Nationals Masters events in both the boys and girls open grade and restricted event category with Qld athletes making Australian teams each year competing internationally. Website: The expansion of our sport services and the sheer size of our popular in school program necessitated us to again continually rebuild the functions of our website. Functions such as ongoing library of reports on events held locally and state wide, location finders for local bowling venues, community services are enhanced through automated school booking of free resources provided to schools via our website and education and training videos available on line for teachers. This in turn provides TBAQ cost savings by assisting us to conquer great distances and travel expenses to provide specific training in the large State we live in. We are still searching for effective communication and database management tools but will constantly evolve our IT to meet our needs.

5


Database and communications: TBAQ are in the process of streamlining our reporting processes and rebuilding volunteer numbers across Queensland. The transient nature of the population in some regions of Queensland poses a constant challenge for us as a state sporting organization. We have been successful delivering consistent services where we are short of volunteers by providing part time development officers to deliver those services. Communication/reporting systems currently in use- Club Spot resources including: activity reports and updated templates to use. Other communication support systems include face book, website, email, bulletins, media release, committee driven database contact, centre based promotions and community organizations partnerships provide updates of activities available to our members.

TBAQ through responsible governance, financial management and sport service delivery have built a stable and well run State Level Sporting Organisation. TBAQ is positioned to expand the scope of our sport service delivery across Queensland in partnership with the Queensland Government. This organisational growth not only increases opportunities for people to participate in an active and healthy lifestyle but also relative employment growth for Queensland.

Organisation history

The Tenpin Bowling Association of Queensland was registered in the year 1969 and became incorporated on the 16th November 1992.

TBAQ with the assistance of the Queensland Government has become the leading State Sporting Organisation for Tenpin Bowling in Australia with many firsts for our sport to our credit.

Starting with a small $30,000 funding level from the State Government back in 1992 TBAQ have built a strong sport organisation that delivers many community sport services to a wide range of the community directly and also indirectly through other community organisations

TBAQ was the first Tenpin Bowling Organisation to successfully operate a Schools program originally called Port-A-Bowl and now called Roll ‘n Strike ‘in school’ which provides free sport services to schools and community groups and also offers sport pathways link in local Bowling Centres to promote frequent bowler programs.

(Pictured: Roll ‘n Strike Lane – 5 lanes per kit)

The Roll ‘n Strike equipment currently delivers Tenpin Bowling to over 60,000 (2018) school children year. TBAQ provide Free Teacher in-service training (Professional Development) and also assists teachers with introductory lessons with pupils providing a compliant syllabus friendly manual to meet the new National Syllabus requirements. TBAQ also make this equipment available to organisations providing services to the community for persons with a disability and are a leading sport with regard to accessibility and adaptability for all persons with a disability both in the community and in our well equipped air conditioned centre’s.

TBAQ have designed many of Tenpins ‘first’ sport service programs and branded these as ‘TBAQ Sport Services’ to market and promote to the Community and Industry stakeholders.

TBAQ provided the first athlete script of training for our sport which has been adopted as an athlete training measurement and is currently used as a talent ID tool by coaches in Qld.

TBAQ was instrumental in marketing and promoting the sports first recruiting program called Funtips, and the State -wide Roll ‘n Strike League to recruit more frequent bowlers to our sport and provide a sport membership incentive at the end of a 5 week program to new bowlers trying our sport for the first time.

This document was formed in consultation with a cross section of stakeholders of the Tenpin Bowling Association of Queensland.
