Release date: 10/5/2009

Fans from all over the world will be able to view bowlers’ scores in real time through the QubicaAMF web site.

QubicaAMF Worldwide, a leader in the bowling products industry, announces that its new Online Scoring product will be used at the 45th Bowling World Cup in Melaka, Malaysia, in November. Online Scoring is available with the Bowler Entertainment System. It allows a centre the ability to post live scores on their website for any special event such as in-centre tournaments, birthday parties, corporate events and more.

Bowling World Cup fans from all over the world will be able to view any players’ scores live through the QubicaAMF web site, providing the ability to track bowler progress throughout the week long tournament. Access to individual’s scores, frame by frame as they are bowled, will be available via a link on the homepage. Visitors can access the online scores and then select specific lanes to see who is playing on each lane, and his/her scores as they are displayed on the overhead monitors.
 
“This will be the first year that fans can view scores in real time, adding to the excitement of the competition,” said Anne-Marie Board, QubicaAMF Bowling World Cup Manager. “The innovation of real time scoring over the internet will mean that friends, family and fans around the world will be able to share in the fun and follow any individual’s scoring as it happens.”

The 52-lane Melaka International Bowling Centre is now completed and the grand opening ceremony took place on August 1st.  The centre is expected to host local tournaments before the BWC gets under way in mid-November.

So far over 94 countries have indicated that they will be participating. A list of the named competitors to date is available here.
