High School Bowling

Bowling for 2026 – 2027 Season!!!

We are always looking for bowlers and next season is no exception!!! We have a boys team and a separate girls team.

The High School teams are open to all students in grades 8 – 12 and tryouts will be Monday, August 24, 2026 and Wednesday, August 26, 2026. You do not need to be at both tryout dates but you do need to have all paperwork filled out in Final Forms before tryouts in August. 

No experience or equipment required. The time commitment for the regular season can be as little or as much as your schedule will allow. I’ve had several students over the years that participate in other Fall/Winter activities including band, cross country, etc.

If you THINK you might be interested in joining the team, please join us in June and July for summer practices just for fun. These practices are just once a week and at your leisure. We will have practices on June 4, 11, 18, July 9, 16, 23, 30.  The regular season starts with tryouts in August and ends in early December unless we make the postseason (we usually make the postseason with at least one if not both teams) which carries over into January. Please contact: Coach: Mark Bracher, BRACHER_M@hcde.org or call/text him at (423) 762-4540.
