ARLINGTON, Texas - The second group of finalists in the Team USA Fantasy Camp contest have been decided and now bowling fans can go to BOWL.com to help decide who will get an expenses-paid trip to the International Training and Research Center in Arlington, Texas, to train with the top coaches in the sport.
David Lance of Merritt Island, Fla., Tom Walker of Crestview, Fla., Chuck Hayslett of Apple Valley, Minn., and Rick Riddle of Palatine, Ill., were selected as the second set of finalists in the contest. Voting is currently underway on BOWL.com and will continue through May 28. Fans can vote once per day.
All four bowlers became eligible for the contest by bowling a 200 game or better in their United States Bowling Congress Sport Bowling league and entering on BOWL.com. Every two months this year, four new bowlers will be randomly selected from those who entered for a chance to win a trip to the ITRC.
A total of six winners this year will win trips to visit the International Bowling Campus, where they will train with Team USA coaches and then take on six members of Team USA in a special competition broadcast live on BOWL.com. In the first round of voting, Mike Reed of Livonia, N.Y., won the trip.
The Team USA Fantasy Camp contest is open to any USBC Sport Bowling member who bowls a 200 game or higher in their USBC Sport Bowling certified league. After shooting a qualifying score, bowlers can enter by visiting BOWL.com/sportbowling.
The ITRC is home to some of the most innovative and cutting-edge coaching technologies available in the bowling industry today, including high-speed video cameras, motion-capture devices, foot-pressure sensors and goggles enhanced with cameras to show exactly where a player is looking during the approach and delivery. A DVR system also is in place and can record any video feed to let a bowler see what they did on their last shot as soon as they step off the lane.
Other technology includes Computer-Aided Tracking System, known as C.A.T.S. which consists of a series of sensors placed along the lane that measure aspects of a bowler's game such as ball speed, accuracy, launch angle, and break-point control. CA.T.S. is combined with BowlersMAP, which breaks down video of the players, to give the athletes a real-time look at their games.
