ARLINGTON, Texas – Nominations and applications for the 2015 Jim Jaryszak Laneman Award now are being accepted. The deadline for submission is March 31.
The Jim Jaryszak Laneman Award was created to recognize a person for their behind-the-scenes work as a laneman. It is named in honor of the former USBC Research Manager who was instrumental in the development of the USBC Sport Bowling program and served as the point person when USBC worked with the Professional Bowlers Association on updating their five “animal” patterns.
To submit a nomination or application, go to BOWL.com/EquipAndSpecs or click here. Nominees and applicants submitted in 2014 also will be considered for this year’s award.
The Jim Jaryszak Laneman Award is presented each year at Bowl Expo, which this year will be held June 22-26 in Las Vegas.
Len Nicholson, the former director of lane maintenance for the PBA, was the first recipient of the award in 2011. Sam Baca (2012), John Davis (2013) and Steve Cross (2014) also have received the honor.
The USBC Equipment Specifications and Certifications Team tests bowling balls, pins, lane surfaces and oils to make sure those four factors meet specific standards to ensure A Future for the Sport.
