This month Youth Bowl Canada showcased it’s premiere event…the YBC National Championships!

Both Fivepin and Tenpin YBC communities converged on Edmonton, Alberta for the 61st Annual YBC National and host Coordinators Martin VanKeimpema and Marisa Jeffcott of Bonnie Doon Bowl, along with their great team of Edmonton locals, put on an awesome show.

Bonnie Doon had all 48 lanes in action as the Fivepin championships were held all under one roof (welcoming 165 bowlers, 72 coaches and scores of friends & family).

Not to be outdone, Gateway Bowl proved yet once again, that western hospitality is second-to-none as the Tenpin Championships went off without a hitch in classic Gateway style.

Special thanks also goes out to the scores of local volunteers, who truly make the Nationals possible!

Next Up…Winnipeg, May, 2026. See all you Fivepin & Tenpin Provincial Champions there!
