Welcome to our Bowling League

Bowling

The Latest News Here!

The HM Tuesday Bowling League is one of the fastest growing sports activities in Hershey’s Mill and the most fun.

A number of our bowlers head south for the winter and we have openings for regulars and subs for the Spring Season which runs…

January 2nd to April 2nd, 2024

We bowl every Tuesday morning from 9:45 to 12 at Palace Lanes in Downingtown. Teams are being formed now so don’t miss out on this fun opportunity!

How it Works....

The Hershey Mill Bowling League runs from mid Oct to end of March. It is divided into 2 halves.

  • The fall session runs from October to end of December. We then declare Winners for the Session.

  • The winter session runs from January to end of March. We then declare Winners for the Session.

The reason for two halves is that most people bowl Oct to March. Perhaps 10-20 bowlers only bowl in the fall session (as many go off to warmer climates) when it gets cold. We then recruit people to fill the empty spots for the winter session, reset the teams and typically wind up with 80 bowlers per session. When we add in the Sub count, we have 125 bowlers in total. 

The HM Tuesday Mixed Bowling League is the best way to get exercise during the winter months, meet some wonderful people and create lifetime friendships.

Keep an eye out for sign-up notices which will start in August, 2023. Hope to see your name as a regular or a substitute.

Have a great summer.
