Chris new one on me a bowling centre in Oldham there isnt one.Trafford centre dont switch the lights on glow bowling league thats a new one,The rest of the centres you mentioned dont want leagues.Ashton is the nearest centre to the zoo belle vue so its manchester to us mancunians and as belle vue did has the biggest leagues in the north or does someone know differant ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????.

i think Rochdale could be an answer, although i dont think they have any leagues or ever have done but i have had the privilege of bowling there with a league pattern as i know the owners and a friend of mine was chief tech there for a short period. With a league pattern down i couldnt complain, whether that is the case now i dont know. Its worth checking id say John, the more options the merrier! As for Ashton, it has the potential to be a VERY good league bowling centre! The leagues there now are tough with indifferent conditions which is good in my eyes because i want to bowl on difficult lanes it can only improve my game. Anyone agree?
