VIDEO: Local bowlers heading to national championships
MEDICINE HAT, AB — Watch Mike Christmann throw a few bowling balls, and you’d never guess he spent nine years away from the sport.
The 44-year-old is putting up some of the best numbers of his career, and in his first year back with Panorama lanes, he’s going to take on the rest of the country next month.
Christmann is heading to Sudbury, Ont. for the Canadian Open Five Pin Championship, his first time on the national stage. The tournament runs from May 31 to June 3.
He says his near-decade away from bowling may be contributing to his strong play.
