Come out and have some fun at GVDBC Deaf Bowling League!

Anyone interested is welcome. We accept teams of 2 persons (or more) or you can join as individual.

We only bowl for 24 weeks, shorter than most leagues in Metro Vancouver. We have a split-season format, so your team will have more than one chance to make it into the final playoffs in March.

Join us for an informal get-together (“FIRST DAY”) at Revs Bowling Centre (formerly the Brentwood Recreational Centre, just next to Holdom Skytrain Station) on Saturday, October 2nd at 9:45 AM. Three FREE non-league games will be played for that day only.

Please be sure to call and reserve your spot now, even if you can’t attend the October 2nd session.

League play begins Saturday, October 9th at 9:45 AM.

We will have many exciting events, like going for National Deaf Championships (10-pins and 5-pins), and going to USA for NWBAD tournament every March. Come on and meet new friends!
