Frederick Living entered five teams into the National Senior Wii Bowling League. We are now in our third week of reporting scores and three of the five teams Frederick entered are in first place in their respective divisions! More than 120 communities are participating from around the United States, making up 320 teams, and over 1,600 seniors are registered on teams. Teams play in their own community, so no traveling is involved. What a fun way to interact with other communities, as well as working on hand eye coordination, balance and social interaction! The season will run for four to seven more weeks, with a playoff format like the NCAA Final Four- you win, you play on. We would like to wish our five teams good luck in the remaining weeks.
